In this contribution I review rigorous formulations of a variety of limitations of measurability in quantum mechanics. To this end I begin with a brief presentation of the conceptual tools of modern measurement theory. I will make precise the notion that quantum measurements necessarily alter the system under investigation and elucidate its connection with the complementarity and uncertainty principles.

    Uncertainty-disturbance relations are derived showing uncertainty prerequisites and upper-bounds disturbance, with applications to estimating quantum resources for rank-one projective measurements.
