Multivariate Parametric Study of Nailfold Capillary Images for Disease Detection.

Nailfold capillaroscopy is a tool which is non-invasive in nature and can be useful for diagnosis, research, therapeutic study and prognosis. Research shows that specific capillary morphology patterns are identified for diabetic subjects, hypertensive subjects and normal controls. In this study, we have proposed RATHEW approach of classifying these three classes of subjects.
