| Concept | Physical dimensions |
| Description | The spatial measurements of an anatomical structure, an object or a fluid that is part of, found in or originates from the body of an individual. |
| Use | Use to record to record the spatial measurements of an anatomical structure, an object or a fluid that is part of, found in or originates from the body of an individual. Examples include but are not limited to:
This archetype is designed to be used within the context of any appropriate ENTRY or CLUSTER archetypes, to provide a common and reusable structure for recording the spatial measurements of a structure, object or fluid. It is specifically designed to be used within CLUSTER.specimen, CLUSTER.imaging_exam, CLUSTER.exam, but can be used within any relevant archetype. In modelling situations, where the measurement requirements cannot be anticipated in advance or dedicated archetypes are not yet available, use this archetype as an agreed approach to record any or all spatial measurements or dimensions. If the orientation of an anatomical structure or object is unclear, each dimension may be recorded using the same data element repeatedly, for example, 'length × length × length'. |
| Misuse | Not to be used to record common body segment measurements that have been modelled as separate archetypes. In modelling situations, where the measurement requirements are able to be anticipated in advance and there are common and known spatial measurements, these should be explicitly recorded as discrete data elements within the relevant archetypes. For example: 'Endometrial thickness' in the CLUSTER.imaging_exam-uterus. |
| Purpose | To record the spatial measurements of an anatomical structure, an object or a fluid that is part of, found in or originates from the body of an individual. |

| Length | Length: The longest dimension of an anatomical structure or object, usually aligned with its primary anatomical or longitudinal axis. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of more than one length. If the orientation of an anatomical structure or object is unclear, each dimension may be recorded using the same data element repeatedly, for example, 'length × length × length'. Elecció de:
|
| Width | Width: The dimension perpendicular to the length, measured in the coronal (left-to-right) or transverse (side-to-side) direction — often representing the second longest axis. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of more than one width. For example, the widest and narrowest part of an abnormal mass. Elecció de:
|
| Height | Height: The vertical distance from a neutral base or reference surface to a higher point on an anatomical structure or object. For example: the height of a lesion from the normal surface of the skin; or the height of a specimen from a tabletop. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of more than one height. For example, the maximum and minimum height of a tumor above the skin surface. Elecció de:
|
| Depth | Depth: The vertical distance from a neutral base or reference surface to a lower point on an anatomical structure or object. For example: the depth of a wound from the normal surface of the skin. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording the deepest and shallowest part of a skin lesion, or the maximum and minimum depth of an internal tumor in soft tissue. Elecció de:
|
| Thickness | Thickness: The distance between two opposite surfaces or boundaries of an anatomical structure or object. For example, the thickness of a tissue layer, organ wall, or biopsy slice. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of multiple measurements. For example, the maximum and minimum thickness of a cyst wall. Elecció de:
|
| Diameter | Diameter: The length of a straight line passing through the centre of an object from one side to the opposite side, typically measured across its widest part. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of multiple measurements. If the orientation of an anatomical structure or object is unclear, use multiple occurrences of the same data element to record the diameter along two or more axes without a specific orientation. For example, a lesion with diameters recorded as 3 mm × 4 mm indicating measurements along two perpendicular axes without defining which is length or width. Elecció de:
|
| Radius | Radius: The length of a straight line from the centre of an object to its surface or boundary, typically representing half the diameter. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of multiple measurements. For example, the maximum and minimum radius of a cyst or nodule. Elecció de:
|
| Circumference/perimeter | Circumference/perimeter: The linear distance around the outer edge or boundary of an object. For irregular or polygonal shapes, this is referred to as the perimeter. For circular or nearly circular shapes, it is commonly referred to as the circumference. This data element has multiple occurrences to allow recording of multiple measurements. For example, the inner and outer perimeter of a scar or uneven skin change or the inner and outer circumference of a cyst or nodule measured at different locations. Elecció de:
|
| Area | Area: The calculated space of a structure/object in two dimensions. Elecció de:
|
| Volume | Volume: The amount of three-dimensional space occupied by a structure/object. Elecció de:
