*Estimated mean error: ±12.7%

1. What is a Bladder Volume Calculator?

Definition: This calculator determines the bladder volume using three dimensions and a shape-specific coefficient.

Purpose: Useful for medical assessments of bladder capacity.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculation is based on the following formula:

\[ \text{Bladder Volume (cm³)} = \text{Dimension 1 (cm)} \times \text{Dimension 2 (cm)} \times \text{Dimension 3 (cm)} \times \text{Coefficient} \]

Unit Conversions:

  • Input (Length):
  • mm → cm: ×0.1
  • cm → cm: ×1
  • m → cm: ×100
  • inch → cm: ×2.54
  • ft → cm: ×30.48
  • yd → cm: ×91.44
  • Output (Volume):
  • cm³ → mm³: ×1000
  • cm³ → dm³: ×0.001
  • cm³ → cu in: ×0.0610237
  • cm³ → ml: ×1
  • cm³ → cl: ×0.1
  • cm³ → l: ×0.001
Coefficient Options:
  • Ellipsoid: 0.81
  • Cuboid: 0.89
  • Triangular Prism: 0.66
  • Prolate Ellipsoid: 0.52
  • I don't know: 0.77
  • Custom: User-defined (0 to 1)
Explanation: Inputs are converted to cm, calculated in cm³, and results are converted to requested units with an estimated error of ±12.7%.

3. Importance of Bladder Volume Calculation

Details: Accurate bladder volume assessment is crucial for diagnosing urinary issues and monitoring bladder health.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Select a bladder shape or custom coefficient, then enter Dimension 1, Dimension 2, and Dimension 3 in mm, cm, m, inch, ft, or yd (all >0). Results show bladder volume in mm³, cm³, dm³, cu in, ml, cl, and l.
