- Measure terms were added to match PhenX hierarchy but make it difficult to locate protocols (which contain the set of variables you would use for a particular purpose). They have been deprecated and mapped directly to protocols.
Term Description
The orchidometer is one method used to measure testes size which is an indication of testes development. The orchidometer consists of a string of twelve numbered wooden or plastic elipsoid beads of increasing size measured as volume. The purpose of the orchidometer is to measure testes size. Because testicular growth correlates with the onset of puberty and the initiation of spermatogenesis, this measure is used to confirm pubertal onset and the presence of sperm production. Small testes may indicate either primary or secondary hypogonadism and large testes (macroorchidism) may indicate fragile X syndrome, a common cause of mental retardation.
