Modelling of Reflectance Spectra of Skin Phototypes III
In dermatology, study of human skin colour is related to skin phototype (SPT) in which the Fitzpatrick's scale is the most used skin photo type classification. Assessment of skin response to UV for various reasons plays an important role in dermatology. This is however not easy to be performed because of two reasons. Firstly, skin areas may have different skin tone resulting in different reflectance spectra and secondly, different modalities may produce different reflectance spectra. We hypothesize that the underlying pattern of reflectance spectra must be similar regardless of the modalities use and the skin areas where it is obtained, for a particular person. An observational clinical stu…
Validation of a 2D multispectral camera: application to dermatology/cosmetology on a population covering five skin phototypes
International audience; This paper presents the validation of a new multispectral camera specifically developed for dermatological application based on healthy participants from five different Skin PhotoTypes (SPT). The multispectral system provides images of the skin reflectance at different spectral bands, coupled with a neural network-based algorithm that reconstructs a hyperspectral cube of cutaneous data from a multispectral image. The flexibility of neural network based algorithm allows reconstruction at different wave ranges. The hyperspectral cube provides both high spectral and spatial information. The study population involves 150 healthy participants. The participants are classif…
