Nodal Analysis is primarily based on the application of Kirchhoff's Laws. Nodal Analysis uses Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) and Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) (and even Ohm's Law) to determine the voltage and current between each node of an electric circuit.

Kirchhoff (not 'Kirchoff') doesn't suggest any way of measuring current or voltage in a circuit. Kirchhoff's Voltage Law defines the relationships between potential differences around any closed loop within a circuit. Kirchhoff's Current Law defines the relationships between currents at any junction within a circuit. Kirchhoff's Laws may also be used to solve complex circuits ('complex' circuits are those circuits which are not series, parallel, or series-parallel).

Current and voltage may be measured with an ammeter and a voltmeter, respectively.

Kirchhoff's Voltage and Current Laws apply to circuits: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.

If your circuit comprises just a single resistor, then they still apply. For example, the voltage drop across a single resistor will be equal and opposite the applied voltage (Kirchhoff's Voltage Law), and the current entering the resistor will be equal to the current leaving it (Kirchhoff's Current Law).
