Limb volume measurements are used for evaluating growth of muscle mass and effectivity of
strength training. Beside sport sciences, it is used eg for detection of oedemas …

Volume changes can be measured either directly by water-displacement volumetry or by
various indirect methods in which calculation of the volume is based on circumference …

Background. Accurate measurements of limb volumes are important for clinical reasons. We
aimed to assess the reliability and validity of two centimetric and two optoelectronic …

Limb edema is a common problem in both rehabilitation and acute care settings. In the past,
attempts to determine an optimal management strategy for limb edema have been limited by …

Background Measurements of residual limb volume often guide decisions on the type and
timing of prosthetic prescription. To help inform these decisions, it is important that clinicians …

Objective: To assess the validity and reliability of girth measurement for calculating the
residual limb volume. Design: Comparison of girth measurement with gold standard in …

This study comprised two experiments:(1) the reliability of a novel optical three-dimensional
(3D) volumetric measurement system (BODYTRONIC® 600) for the assessment of lower …

The aim of this research was to validate a new procedure (SkanLab) for the three-
dimensional estimation of total arm volume. SkanLab is based on a single structured-light …

Background: Lymphedema of the upper extremity is a common side effect of lymph node
dissection or irradiation of the axilla. Several techniques are being applied in order to …

Background: Non-contact scanners may have potential for measurement of residual limb
volume. Different non-contact scanners have been introduced during the last decades …
