Abstract

A prototype RGB imaging device for the mapping and monitoring of hemoglobin distribution in skin was designed and tested. The device was examined for monitoring hemoglobin concentration changes during specific provocations: arterial/venous occlusions and heat test. Besides, hemoglobin distribution maps of rosacea on a cheek were obtained.
