Reduction of shading-derived artifacts in skin chromophore imaging without measurements or assumptions about the shape of the subject

Abstract: Abstract. To quantitatively evaluate skin chromophores over a wide region of curved skin surface, we propose an approach that suppresses the effect of the shading-derived error in the reflectance on the estimation of chromophore concentrations, without sacrificing the accuracy of that estimation. In our method, we use multiple regression analysis, assuming the absorbance spectrum as the response variable and the extinction coefficients of melanin, oxygenated hemoglobin, and deoxygenated hemoglobin as the predi… Show more

“…Figure 9(b) shows the time courses of C m , C oh , C dh , C th , and StO 2 during cuff occlusion at 250 mm Hg. The average values of C m and C th were 6.24 ± 0.06% and 0.211 ± 0.008%, respectively, in pre-occlusion (normal), which are close to typical values for Japanese subjects reported in the literatures [10,21,22]. The average value of 44.3 ± 3.4% for StO 2 in pre-occlusion agrees with the mean blood oxygen saturation of normal human subjects (range 30.2-52.4%) reported in the literatures [23].…”
