Abstract
This disclosure provides a novel method and system for wound assessment and treatment to improve wound healing. The disclosed method and system employs machine learning models to extract information from collected wound images and other data to determine wound healing rates and appropriate treatment plans.
Claims21
A method of determining a wound healing rate of a wound or a portion thereof on a subject, comprising:
- obtaining image data comprising an image of a wound or a portion thereof of a subject;
- automatically segmenting the image into a plurality of regions by a first trained model;
- automatically determining a boundary of a wound area of the wound or portion thereof by a second trained model based on the plurality of regions from segmentation;
- determining three-dimensional characteristics of the wound area comprising a length, a width, and a depth of the wound or portion thereof;
- and
- determining a wound healing rate of the wound based on the three-dimensional characteristics of the wound area and using the equation:
- V/P=−D(c)*t+q,
- where V is a volume of wound, P is a perimeter of wound, Dc is a continuous linear healing rate, t is time in between evaluation, and q is time of closure.
