Handheld 3D Scanning System for In-Vivo Imaging of Skin Cancer

Abstract: We present a handheld scanning system for measuring in-vivo the 3D topography of the human skin surface. The system has been envisaged for analyzing the 3D shape of skin cancer lesions, providing a more precise characterization of the lesions compared with the conventional examination done by using the naked eye and dermoscopy methods. The 3D scanning system is composed of cost-effective and commercially available components, including two monochrome cameras placed in a stereo configuration, a color camera, an… Show more

“…Future work will be focused on increasing the sample set. Also, combining spectral and 3D data available from a former study [ 10 , 23 ] will increase noticeably the morphological and textural information of lesions and hopefully improve the sensitivity and specificity values. Moreover, usage of the proposed methodology may benefit from conjoint use with the VIS-NIR and exNIR modality to maximize specificity.…”

“…Ares et al [ 64 ] developed a 3D scanner that incorporates two megapixel stereoscopic cameras, which are placed at a certain distance from each other and oriented at a specific angle. In the middle, they placed a picoprojector ( Figure 3 ).…”

“…Combining with texture mapping, the range of applications of the fringe projection technique is broadened, especially to fields such as virtual reality, [2][3][4] commercial advertisement and entertainment, 5 medical diagnosis, [6][7][8] cosmetics, 9 anthropology, 10 and cultural heritage preservation. [11][12][13][14] Many methods have been developed for acquiring the texture of a measured object.…”
