International Classification:
G06K 9/00, A61B 6/02
US Classification:
382128, 382154, 378 41
Abstract:
A method of assessing a body part includes obtaining two or more types of data through a combination of two or more of the following four imaging modalities: (1) obtaining surface topography data of the body part, (2) obtaining thermographic data of the body part, (3) obtaining range of motion data for the body part, and (4) obtaining spectral data of light reflected from the body part. The two or more types of data are integrated to allow them to be interacted with simultaneously, and the body part is assessed based on the integrated data.

Method Of Assessing Localized Shape And Temperature Of The Human Body

US Patent:
7734077, Jun 8, 2010
Filed:
Mar 2, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/395912
Inventors:
Raphael Hirsch - Pittsburgh PA, US
James Osborn - Oakmont PA, US
Chian Kent Kwoh - Pittsburgh PA, US
Louis J. Denes - Pittsburgh PA, US
Daniel Huber - Pittsburgh PA, US

US Classification:
382128, 382154, 378 41
Abstract:
A method of objectively quantifying assessments of joints having arthritis for purposes of assessment, diagnosis and treatment. The objective measurements utilize known imaging modalities including 3D scanning, thermal imaging, visible and near-infrared imaging and two-dimensional imaging to quantify swelling, heat distribution, erythema, and range or motion. The objective measurements can be combined in various ways to assess the extent of the disease and can be used to adjust treatment protocols.
