BSA for Chemotherapy Dosing Calculator
Calculate Body Surface Area (BSA) and determine individual chemotherapy drug dosages.
Input Parameters
Enter details for calculation.
Calculated BSA
Expert Tip
Mosteller formula is widely utilized in clinical oncology for its mathematical simplicity: BSA = √((Height in cm × Weight in kg) / 3600).
Calculation Methodology & Details
Formula
Uses the Mosteller standard equation to find body surface area, then multiplies by the target dose per square meter.

This clinical oncology calculator provides chemotherapy dosing precision, tumor staging risk stratification, performance status scoring, and prognostic index evaluation based on ASCO and NCCN clinical guidelines.
Variable Glossary
Oncology & Lab Data
Serum creatinine/eGFR, target AUC, GFR (Calvert formula), BSA (m²), tumor size/grade, or biopsy scores.
Prognostic Index
Calculated dose (mg), ECOG grade (0-5), Nottingham Index score, or 10-year cancer risk percentage.
How to Calculate Step-by-Step
Step 1
Enter patient body surface area, GFR/creatinine clearance, or histopathological biopsy findings.
Step 2
Specify target AUC dose parameters or patient functional performance status options.
Step 3
Review calculated chemotherapy total mg dose, risk stratification category, or survival probability estimates.
