Kits, diagnostic systems and methods are provided, which measure the distribution of colors of skin features by comparison to calibrated colors which are co-imaged with the skin feature. The colors on the calibration template (calibrator) are selected to represent the expected range of feature colors under various illumination and capturing conditions. The calibrator may also comprise features with different forms and size for calibrating geometric parameters of the skin features in the captured images. Measurements may be enhanced by monitoring over time changes in the distribution of colors, by measuring two and three dimensional geometrical parameters of the skin feature and by associating the data with medical diagnostic parameters. Thus, simple means for skin diagnosis and monitoring are provided which simplify and improve current dermatologic diagnostic procedures.

A method comprising:
A diagnostic system comprising:
A kit comprising:
A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program embodied therewith, the computer readable program configured to derive, from at least one captured image of a calibrator having selected colors and a skin feature, an image normalization function from a comparison between captured calibrator colors and the selected calibrator colors, and to apply the image normalization function to the captured skin feature to yield normalized colors of the skin feature.
