Abstract: A real-time measurement method of the sphygmic wave velocity (PWV) comprises an acquisition process (AQ) of sphygmic signals and a simultaneous analysis process (AN) of the acquired signals in real time, in which the analysis process involves searching for the foot of the sphygmic wave around a point corresponding to the relative minimum of the same band-pass filtered signal.

Abstract: A system and a method of analysis of medical images of an ulcer acquired by a capturing and measuring device (d1, . . . , dN) adapted to detect at least one parameter of the ulcer. The method provides for: —automatically and accurately identifying and classifying the ulcer and the clinical state of the ulcer being analyzed, —evaluating the evolution of the ulcer over time, —correlating the pathologic state of the ulcer detected by the capturing and measuring device (d1, . . . , dN) with the clinical data and characteristics of the patient, —comparing the pathologic state of the ulcer with similar ulcers of other patients and determining a plurality of possible therapies and posologies, and —selecting, from said plurality, a therapy and a posology to be adopted for the patient in order to achieve ulcer recovery, on the basis of the success percentage of the selected therapy and posology.
