We investigate the potential of mobile smartphone-based multispectral imaging for the quantitative diagnosis and management of skin lesions. Recently, various mobile devices such as a smartphone have emerged as healthcare tools. They have been applied for the early diagnosis of nonmalignant and malignant skin diseases. Particularly, when they are combined with an advanced optical imaging technique such as multispectral imaging and analysis, it would be beneficial for the early diagnosis of such skin diseases and for further quantitative prognosis monitoring after treatment at home. Thus, we demonstrate here the development of a smartphone-based multispectral imaging system with high portability and its potential for mobile skin diagnosis. The results suggest that smartphone-based multispectral imaging and analysis has great potential as a healthcare tool for quantitative mobile skin diagnosis.
我们研究了基于智能手机的多光谱成像在皮肤病变定量诊断和管理方面的潜力。最近,诸如智能手机之类的各种移动设备已成为医疗工具。它们已被应用于非恶性和恶性皮肤疾病的早期诊断。特别是,当它们与多光谱成像和分析等先进的光学成像技术相结合时,将有利于此类皮肤疾病的早期诊断以及在家中治疗后的进一步定量预后监测。因此,我们在此展示了一种具有高便携性的基于智能手机的多光谱成像系统的开发及其在移动皮肤诊断中的潜力。结果表明,基于智能手机的多光谱成像和分析作为定量移动皮肤诊断的医疗工具具有巨大潜力。
