Infantile hemangiomas evaluation based on hyperspectral imaging

Abstract

This study presents a hyperspectral optical imaging system for the diagnosis of infantile hemangiomas. Pilot studies were conducted in the clinic on infants. As the main results, the parameters of blood flow and saturation of the areas with hemangiomas were calculated using a previously developed neural network approach. The results indicate the possibility of using this system to monitor the effectiveness of hemangiomas therapy.
