NO
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the validity of upper limb volume measurements calculated using the truncated cone method based on circumference measurements by comparing them with Perometer-derived volumes in patients with upper extremity lymphedema, and to determine the optimal number of measurement points for practical clinical use.
Others
Validation of upper limb volume measurement using circumference measurements and the truncated cone method
Difference between upper limb volume measured using the circumference-based truncated cone method and upper limb volume measured by the water displacement method
