Quantitative assessment of skin mechanical properties can play a pivotal role in diagnosing and tracking various dermatological conditions. Myoton is a promising tool that rapidly and noninvasively measures five skin biomechanical parameters. Accurate interpretation of these parameters requires systematic in vitro testing with easy-to-fabricate, cost-effective skin-mimicking phantoms with controllable properties.

The method was validated by dermatologist-approved confident delineations of only definitely affected and definitely unaffected areas in photographs. A prototype hyperspectral imaging system acquired a 2.

Camera distance and angle are particularly important as they are highly variable in a clinical setting. To account for variability in illumination, camera technology, and geometric effects, color standards are often used for color correction.
