A method is proposed for identifying ('segmenting') at least one portion of the skin of an animal which is a region of interest (e.g. a portion which is subject to an abnormality such as a tumor). The method uses at least a temperature dataset obtained by measuring the temperature of each of a plurality of points of a region of the skin. An initial segmentation may be performed using the temperature data based on a statistical model, in which each point is segmented based on its temperature and optionally that of its neighbors. The initial segmentation based on the temperature data may be improved using a three-dimensional model of the profile of the skin, and the enhanced segmentation may be used to improve the three-dimensional model.

Systems and methods for segmentation and measurement of a skin abnormality

A method for estimating a region associated with a deformity on a surface portion of the skin of a mammal, the method comprising capturing a three-dimensional image of the surface portion to produce first data, the first data comprising depth data, and generating second data from the first data. The second data comprises curvature data. The method further comprises combining the first data and the second data to produce third data, and performing region growing on the third data.
