- Enter your weight in kilograms.
- Click on the calculate button.
- View your body surface area result in square meters.
How Does This Tool Work?
This tool uses the Mosteller formula to calculate body surface area. It takes your height and weight, then gives an estimated BSA value.
Formula: BSA = √((Height in cm × Weight in kg) / 3600)
The final answer is shown in square meters. This is an estimate and should not replace professional medical advice.
Example
