β¦ Synopsis
Several methods for estimating the size of apple bruises have been compared against the actual volume measured using a sectioning and image analysis technique. The estimation methods were not consistent, with large estimation errors at small bruise sizes. The estimation of bruise volume was shown to be improved when the surface shape of the bruise was taken to be an ellipse instead of a circle. Various methods are recommended for the estimation of the bruise volume dependent on the range of the bruise sizes which are to be investigated.

## Abstract Investigators can infer how much reduction in volume has occurred since brain volume was at its peak, by combining measures of brain volume with measures of intracranial volume (ICV). Several methodologies have been proposed to asses the ICV. However, we have not seen a goldβstandard st
