Total body weight estimation by 3D camera systems: Potential high-tech solutions for emergency medicine applications? A scoping review.

Background: Weight estimation is required in adult patients when weight-based medication must be administered during emergency care, as measuring weight is often not possible. Inaccurate estimations may lead to inaccurate drug dosing, which may cause patient harm. High-tech 3D camera systems driven by artificial intelligence might be the solution to this problem.
