Abstract
Summary: The minimum normal growth of the fingernails being 0.5 mm per week makes it rather difficult to measure the nail growth within a period less than three to four weeks. It is suggested that the use of an X‐ray marker will help obtain accurate measurement of nail growth within shorter periods of time, such as one week.Keywords
