Abstract

![CDATA[Circumferences of the affected upper limb(s) are commonly measured to indicate lymphedema in breast cancer survivors. The traditional circumferential measurement using cloth measuring tape could be inconvenient. With the use of 3D body scanner, girth measurement can be non-contact and more convenient.]]
