German term or phrase: im Rahmen der Messgenauigkeit
Anyone outr there for a quick constructive help?

Discharge report. I am proofreading, and not liking the translation (too literal)) of

"Zu (date) deutlich größenprogrediente und neu aufgetretene, zu (date) im Rahmen der Messgenauigkeit nur gering größenprogrediente disseminierte Lungenmetastasen[...]"

Thank you!

Methinks, we have overanalyzed this sentence...

"Depending on measuring accuracy/ the accuracy of measurements, disseminated lung metastases are showing little metastatic progression"

Or:

"As far as can be ascertained by measurements, disseminated lung metastases are showing little metastatic progression"
