| name | Prostate Volume by derived by planimetry (US) | ||
| description | For this method, a number of parallel B-mode images are recorded which cover the prostate. The prostate is outlined in each image. The system then estimates the volume of the prostate based on these parallel sections. Units in cm3. | ||

| component | Volume | ||
| property | Vol = Volume | ||
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
| system | Prostate | ||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256 | ||
