[en] This work consists of carrying out an objective quantification of dimensions and volume
loss of skin substance using an optical 3D reading system. This technique, simple, non-invasive and reproducible, can be integrated into epidemiological studies of ulcerations of the lower limbs and to measure their evolution. This technique also makes it possible to be integrated into therapeutic efficacy studies dressing wounds and being able to rigorously and critically objectify the effectiveness of these treatments.
