The Efficacy of Stereoimage Optical Topometry to Evaluate Depressed Acne Scar Treatment Using Cultured Autologous Fibroblast Injection

Abstract

A three-dimensional morphologic study can be a useful and reliable method of evaluating the severity of acne scars. We were able to more objectively and quantitatively evaluate acne scar severity through combined analysis using visual grading and SOT systems.

“…In terms of stereo vision, which we used to calculate 3D information about the skin, researchers in the field are active mainly in stereo matching and in its medical application .Although there is a nonlinear relationship between disparity and depth, the calibration of these two factors has not become a great issue in the general research of stereo images, because of the lack of necessity or the simplification of calculations. However, for quantification in medical application, studies of calibration are necessary.…”
