hello, thank you for making this video. But I have a question about the estimation of SUVr. Is the SUVr a literally true equal to 1 in all examples even if a body mass is 1kg, 2kg, or 10kg? I don't think so and these SUVr meaning has to be different from each others.

please give referancs or evidences for""SUV derived from two seperate studies, is expected to differ by up to +/- 28% for 95% of obeservation.
