Spleen volume measurement using computed tomography (CT) in a patient with Crohn disease. Using the Image J software, the outline of the spleen is drawn (red line) on each slice of the CT image, and the spleen area is calculated. The thickness of each CT slice is multiplied by the corresponding spleen area on the slice; summation of the volumes of all slices gives the total spleen volume.
