Abstract: A method for mapping painful zones, includes: on a first screen, displaying a first silhouette representing the rear face of a body; drawing at least one painful zone on the first displayed silhouette; indicating the location of a pain felt by a patient; determining a first number of pixels on the first screen corresponding to the painful zone; measuring a reference distance between two morphological reference points on the patient; converting the first number of pixels into a painful cutaneous surface, the reference distance being used as a parameter in the conversion.

Abstract: In order to assist in evaluating/monitoring pain, and in treating same, a touch-sensitive graphics tool is provided with a local application (TGapps) for displaying a graphical representation of a patient's body, on which the patient can delimit a zone. A control application cooperates with the local application in order to record each delimited zone together with the corresponding surface data. The control application has a first mode in which the local application (TGapps) can be used by the patient to delimit zones of pain and a second mode in which the local application can be used by the patient to delimit treated zones. The tool is configured to activate graphical and/or numerical comparisons between the surface areas of the pain zones and the surface areas of the treated zones. In this way, it is possible to evaluate pain and the effects of treatment.

A control application cooperates with the local application (TGapps) in order to record each delimited zone together with the corresponding surface data. The control application is configured to control a patient auto-calibration function that can determine deviations between a plurality of target points designated by contact on the patient's physical body and the corresponding points that the patient points to on the graphical representation displayed on the screen. The delimitation by the patient of a zone on the graphical representation is altered according to the patient auto-calibration deviations.
