A combined approach for using thermography for the detection of diabetes mellitus

摘要

This paper presents work done to develop an early diagnosis and monitoring method-encompassing thermography for the detection of Diabetes Mellitus. The early detection method involves fusion of images from infrared cameras, ultrasound devices, a 3D camera and a dermatascope. The project is to develop a novel system that could be easily used by physicians to allow for early intervention, and the paper highlights the approach taken by the Skindetector project.
