Area is a 2-dimensional measure. Perimeter is 1-dimensional and volume is 3-dimensional.
1 pint is a measure of volume where as 1 pounds (sic) is a measure of weight.
They measure different things: 1 milliliter is a measure of volume, whereas 1 milligram is a measure of weight.

The ICD-9-CM Hospital edition includes all three ICD-9 volumes: 1 (tabular list of diseases), 2 (alphabetic index of diseases), 3 (alphabetic index and tabular list of procedures). The ICD-9-CM Physician edition only includes volumes 1 and 2, since they use the CPT to code their procedures and not volume 3 of the ICD-9.

There is no difference. 1 cubic centimeter (cc) and 1 milliliter (mL) are the same volume.

ICD-10 is a diagnostic coding system implemented by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1993 to replace ICD-9, which was developed by WHO in the 1970s. ICD-10-CM is scheduled to replace ICD-9-CM, our current U.S. diagnostic code set, on Oct. 1, 2013. Medical science keeps making new discoveries, and there are no numbers to assign these diagnoses. ICD-9 is out of room because the classifications are organized scientifically and each three-digit category can have only 10 subcategories. Most numbers in most categories have been assigned diagnoses.
You would need to look it up in the ICD-9 Index to Diseases (Volume 2) first, then verify it in the Tabular List (Volume 1). Code 603.9 is for: Hydrocele, unspecified

ICD-9See also: List of ICD-9 codesThe ICD-9 was published by the WHO in 1977. According to the World Health Organization Department of Knowledge Management and Sharing, the WHO no longer publishes or distributes the ICD-9 which is now public domain.[5]ICD-9-CMInternational Classification of Diseases, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) is a classification used in assigning codes to diagnoses associated with inpatient, outpatient, and physician office utilization in the U.S. The ICD-9-CM is based on the ICD-9 but provides for additional morbidity detail and is annually updated on October 1.[6] It was created by the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics as an extension of ICD-9 system so that it can be used to capture more morbidity data and a section of procedure codes was added.[7] It consists of two or three volumes:Volumes 1 and 2 contain diagnosis codes. (Volume 1 is a tabular listing, and volume 2 is an index.) Extended for ICD-9-CMVolume 3 contains procedure codes. ICD-9-CM onlyThe National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are the U.S. governmental agencies responsible for overseeing all changes and modifications to the ICD-9-CM.Currently, people and healthcare and medical facilities are waiting and preparing for the update. ICD 10 is said to be launched by 2014.
