If I remember correctly The formula is.[ (PI)R Squared X Height ].I do not have any idea how to type it any other way on here (I'm Cyber-Stupid). So take 1/2 of your diameter and multiply it, times itself, then multiply by 3.14159---This gives you area of the circle in MM. Then add the stroke to whats left above it--This gives you "Height". Then Multiply Dia. Of circle times height= Volume in Square MMs. Let me know what you get--The Medic
