What is Ponderal Index?
The Ponderal Index (PI) is similar to BMI (body mass index) as it also measures the leanness or corpulence of a person based on their height and weight. The main difference between the PI and BMI is the cubing rather than squaring of the person’s height. So BMI is kg/m2 while PI is kg/m3.
