Abstract
Background Accurate diagnosis and measurement of limb volume in people with lymphoedema is important in order to provide best information for treatment, management and self-management. Current assessment methods lack detail and accuracy. Three-dimensional camera imaging (3DCI) holds the potential to...

These data sets were matched against limb volume to determine criterion validity, intra-rater reliability and accuracy. Results 3DCI had high intra-rater correlation (ICC=0.87; p<0.00). Concurrent validity ranged from 0.82 to 0.86 against perometry and CTM, with good sensitivity (91.7% to 100%) and moderate specificity (50% to 66.7%). Limb shape calculation (shape redundancy) had moderate intra-rater correlation (ICC=0.71; p=0.01); but correlated poorly with limb volume (r=0.19 to 0.39). Coloured oedema maps were sensitive to change over time with colours clearly identifying problem areas and fluctuations within the affected limb. Conclusion Our study shows that 3DCI is a reliable, valid and accurate method of limb volume measurement, and that it could provide supportive information in clinical assessment. In addition, limb shape provides insight into localised areas of swelling, which other methods of lymphoedema measurement do not.
