Body Surface Area (BSA) Calculator
Calculate Body Surface Area using the standard Mosteller formula based on height and weight.
Body Surface Area (BSA)1.818 m²
Why is BSA Important?
Body Surface Area (BSA) is the measured or calculated surface area of a human body. It is heavily utilized in medical and clinical settings, particularly for calculating dosages for chemotherapy or glucocorticoids, because BSA is a more accurate indicator of metabolic mass than body weight alone.
