In the upper extremities, the standard error of measurement was 3.6% (\u03c3=0.7%) for water volumetry, 5.6% (\u03c3=2.1%) for perometry, and 6.6% (\u03c3=2.6%) for tape measurement. Sensitivity of tape measurement in the upper extremities, using different cutoff points, varied from 0.73 to 0.90, and specificity values varied from 0.72 to 0.78.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Limitations<\/jats:title><jats:p>No uniform definition of lymphedema was available, and a gold standard as a reference test was lacking.
