Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The recordings consist of spectral images of the bruise. Based on this dataset the areas of the hemoglobin and bilirubin can be determined. The development of these areas gives an overview of the healing process of the bruise. This information will be used for the validation and optimization of our 3D computer model for the age determination of bruises.	—
