Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting an edge-perimeter of a wound from a digital wound image are disclosed, which may include: receiving, as an initial sampling point, an input from a user of a point on the digital wound image located inside of the wound; determining an initial edge-perimeter of the wound based on the initial sampling point by determining an initial representative color space spectrum from the initial sampling point; determining an initial center point of the wound on the digital wound image based on the initial edge-perimeter; determining a final edge-perimeter of the wound by using the initial center point as a second sampling point and determining a second representative color space spectrum from the second sampling point; and displaying an overlay of the final edge-perimeter superimposed on the digital wound image.

Abstract: A configurable scanner (1), for contactless measurement of the depth and perimeter of a wound on a target body part (9), has a scan head (4), and is configured to be controlled by a processor (3) for controlling a scanning procedure and analyzing the results. The scan head (4) projects a contour line onto a surface the target body part, and captures an image of the projected contour line. A series of captured images are analyzed to create a three dimensional model of the wound, and determine at least one of depth, perimeter and volume of the wound from the three dimensional model.

Abstract: A configurable scanner (1), adapted for contactless measurement of the depth and perimeter of a wound on a target body part (9), has a scan head (4), and a processor (3) for controlling a scanning procedure and analyzing the results. The scan head is translated along a substantially semicircular path (7) having a configurable radial distance from an imaginary axis, such that the imaginary axis is approximately coincident with an axis of the target (9). The scan head (4) projects a contour line having a calibrated length onto the target surface, and the processor (3) stores an image of the projected contour line captured by an image capturing device (11). The processor (3) analyzes a series of captured images to determine the coordinates in three axes of the projected contour line, creates therefrom a 3D model of the region of interest, and determines a depth and perimeter of the wound from the 3D model.
