Controller for measuring prostate volume

摘要: Systems and methods are provided herein that generally involve measuring a prostate or other object. In some embodiments, membrane can be sealed over digit extension to form closed volume. The volume inflated via an inflation tube, reference pattern disposed within the along with measurement assembly. use, user put on glove, position in proximity rectal wall overlying prostate, inflate membrane. As slides their finger across wall, optical fibers assembly move relative pattern, controller sense light reflected through from pattern. calculate estimate various attributes of based light, such as palpable surface width
