摘要: Some diseases may underlie finger clubbing. However, there is a dearth of information about early stage clubbing because only few researchers have shown interest in it. We determined the Digital Index normal, healthy subjects by using thread and manual Vernier calipers, time used for procedure, its interrater reliability. The value was 8.86 ± 0.29 (Mean SD) with range 8.15 to 9.41. Interrater reliability excellent Pearson's correlation coefficient 0.966. Overall, taken measure ranged from 21.93 68.80 minutes an average 35.97 9.16 SD). Determining need much time, but this can be overcome if we use Quantitator (DIQ). Availability DIQ hospital wards will benefit. also accurately quantify progression or regression process. This article proves that morphometry digital as well physical sign Index.
