Yes, as I said, distribution is important. Waist measurement is a good indicator. For men it can be used to directly calculate body fat percentage. For women you also need to include the hip measurement, NICE hasn't caught on to that yet
You also need to measure a bony part of the body like the wrist to get some input on bone mass. The major change which is required is to use this to measure body fat and to use that instead of BMI, NICE hasn't got to grips with that either. This will only be a rough estimate as you don't tend to have the complex equipment in a surgery to accurately measure body fat. But even as rough as it is, it is better than BMI for individuals. All in my opinion of course which is worth what you paid for it
