Abstract
A method of determining volumetric data of a predetermined anatomical feature is described. The method comprising determining volumetric data of one or more anatomical features present in a field of view of a depth sensing camera apparatus, identifying a predetermined anatomical feature as being present in the field of view of the depth sensing camera apparatus, associating the volumetric data of one of the one or more anatomical features with the identified predetermined anatomical feature, and outputting the volumetric data of the predetermined anatomical feature. An apparatus is also described.

A method of determining volumetric data of a predetermined anatomical features, the method comprising:
- capturing one or more time and image pairs using a three-dimensional imaging camera apparatus, wherein each of the one or more time and image pairs comprises an image and a time of capture of the image;
- identifying one or more predetermined anatomical features present in a field of view of the three-dimensional imaging camera apparatus;
- determining volumetric data of the one or more predetermined anatomical features present in the field of view;
- associating the volumetric data of at least one of the one or more predetermined anatomical features with the identified one or more predetermined anatomical features;
- and
- outputting both the time of capture and the volumetric data of the at least one of the one or more predetermined anatomical features.
A method of determining volumetric data of one or more predetermined anatomical features, the method comprising:
- capturing one or more images of one or more predetermined anatomical features present in a field of view of a three-dimensional imaging camera apparatus;
- recording a time at which the one or more images were captured;
- determining volumetric data of the one or more predetermined anatomical features;
- and
- outputting both the volumetric data of the one or more predetermined anatomical features and the recorded time.
A system for determining volumetric data of a predetermined anatomical features, the system comprising:
- a three-dimensional imaging camera apparatus for capturing one or more images;
- and
- at least one computer comprising at least one processor operatively connected to at least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium, the at least one non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one computer, cause the at least one computer to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- recording a time at which the one or more images were captured by the three-dimensional imaging camera apparatus;
- identifying one or more predetermined anatomical features present in a field of view of the three-dimensional imaging camera apparatus;
- determining volumetric data of the one or more predetermined anatomical features present in the field of view;
- associating the volumetric data of at least one of the one or more predetermined anatomical features with the identified one or more predetermined anatomical features;
- and
- outputting both the recorded time and the volumetric data of the at least one of the one or more predetermined anatomical features,
- wherein the volumetric data depends upon the recorded time.
