Italian term or phrase: tempi di rilievo
Anyone know what this means?

L’elemento è stato rimosso e riposizionato rispettando la sequenza di vincolo predefinita. A causa della forma dell’elemento è stato necessario opacizzarne la superficie per favorire la digitalizzazione della parte interna. I **tempi di rilievo** degli elementi sono stati di:
Tempo medio di digitalizzazione: ~ 6‘ 30‘‘
Tempo medio di elaborazione : ~ 6‘
Tempo medio di controllo : ~ 30‘‘

I can't quite get at it.

critical time measurements
Explanation:
"rilievo" in this case means "critical" "what needs to be highlighted", "salient", "relevant", "key".

I am tempted to omit the adjectives altogether and just translate it as "time measurements" ....

but, I presume that during this test they may have tested other elapsed times and turned out to be irrelevant......that is why I am keeping \"critical\".
