Preoperative assessment of breast volume could contribute significantly to the planning of breast-related procedures. The availability of 3D scanning technology provides us with an innovative method for doing this. We performed this study to compare measurements by this technology with breast volume measurement by water displacement. A total of 30 patients undergoing 39 mastectomies were recruited from our center. The volume of each patient's breast(s) was determined with a preoperative 3D laser scan. The volume of the mastectomy specimen was then measured in the operating theater by water displacement. There was a strong linear association between breast volumes measured using the 2 different methods when using a Pearson correlation (r = 0.95, P < 0.001). The mastectomy mean volume was defined by the equation: mastectomy mean volume = (scan mean volume × 1.03) -70.6. This close correlation validates the Cyberware WBX Scanner as a tool for assessment of breast volume.
术前评估乳房体积对与乳房相关手术的规划可能有显著帮助。三维扫描技术的出现为我们提供了一种创新方法来进行此项评估。我们开展这项研究，旨在比较该技术测量结果与水置换法测量乳房体积的差异。本中心共招募了30例接受39次乳房切除术的患者。术前通过三维激光扫描测定每位患者乳房的体积。然后在手术室通过水置换法测量乳房切除标本的体积。使用Pearson相关性分析时，两种不同方法测量的乳房体积之间存在强线性关联（r = 0.95，P < 0.001）。乳房切除平均体积由以下公式定义：乳房切除平均体积=（扫描平均体积×1.03）- 70.6。这种紧密的相关性验证了三维人体扫描系统WBX扫描仪作为评估乳房体积工具的有效性。
