Body Surface Area Calculator

Computes body surface area from height and weight using the Mosteller, Du Bois, Haycock, Gehan-George and Boyd formulas — the basis for many chemotherapy and drug dosing calculations.

Notes

  • Mosteller: BSA = √(height × weight / 3600), the simplest and most widely used bedside formula.
  • Average adult BSA is about 1.7 m²; the formulas agree to within a few percent for typical body sizes.
  • This is an educational estimate, not medical advice; consult a professional for decisions about your health.
