“…The cost-effective alternative could be remote photoplethysmography [ 26 ], which is a contactless optical technique for blood volume pulsation detection in the tissue using various computational algorithms [ 27 ] and relatively simple instrumentation: video camera, to detect subtle variations of back-reflected light, and appropriate light source. Currently, the imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) is expanding its applications beyond the assessment of heart rate and arterial stiffness, illustrated by previous studies such as studies of Kamshilin et al suggesting the high clinical potential of remote photoplethysmography in the evaluation of cutaneous vasomotor responses [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ]. However, further refinement of this approach requires alteration of small sensory nerve fiber function in a controllable manner, which is difficult to achieve in neuropathic patients due to differences in etiology, degree of dysfunction, comorbidities, and other factors [ 33 ].…”
