US 2026/0294331 A1 · AUTOMATED SKIN CONDITION EVALUATION

Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to automated skin condition evaluation. A region of interest within image data of a user is identified that is afflicted by a skin or nail condition. A control region that is unafflicted by the condition may similarly be identified, such that a set of chromophore concentrations is generated for the control region. Using the set of chromophore concentrations, an estimated thickness is generated for the region of interest. Thus, it is assumed that the amount of chromophores at the control region are at least approximately the same as the amount of chromophores at the region of interest, such that a difference in coloration between the control region and the region of interest is predominantly the result of a difference in thickness. A skin/nail condition severity metric may thus ultimately be generated for the region of interest using the estimated thickness and/or a surface roughness.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

at least one processor;
and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the system to perform a set of operations, the set of operations comprising:
obtaining:
image data representative of a control region of skin of a user;
and
image data of a region of interest of the skin;
generating, based on the image data representative of the control region, a set of chromophore concentrations;
generating, based on the set of chromophore concentrations and the image data of the region of interest, an estimated skin thickness for the skin in the region of interest;
and
providing an indication of the estimated skin thickness.
