1-4 Overview
1.2.2 Measurement Tool
There are two kinds of measurement tools.
General tools: Basic measurement tools in General Measurement, such as the "distance" and
"Area".
Application tools: The measurement tools in Application Measurement. These items are
classified and combined in clinical application package such as Abdomen, Obstetric, etc. E.g.
HC (head circumference) in the Obstetric measurement is one of the application tools.
Tips: 1. Actually, most application tools use the general measurement method while
measuring, e.g. an "Area" tool is used when measuring the HC. Only the
application measurement results are recorded in the report.
