Methods for assessing a skin surface of a patient and associated systems and devices are described herein. A method configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, receiving a three-dimensional data set representative of the patient's skin surface and determining a boundary of a feature of the patient's skin in the three-dimensional data set. The method can further include determining, with a processor, a three-dimensional surface area of the feature within the boundary. In some embodiments, the method can also include identifying a plurality of sub-regions within the boundary and identifying one or more tissue types in each sub-region.

Anatomical surface assessment methods, devices and systems

A method of assessing a feature on a patient's skin surface includes capturing (i) an image of the patient's skin surface with a camera of a portable capture device and (ii) range information with an auxiliary range measurement device that is attached to the portable capture device. Based on the range information, a single range value can be determined between the capture device and the patient's skin surface. In some embodiments, a scale can be associated with the image based on the single range value.

A magnetic testing apparatus includes a magnet assembly with a sample path extending through the magnet assembly. The magnetic field produced by the magnet assembly defines a known, varying magnetic field profile along the sample path. A sample is moved along sample path such that the sample portion is subjected to a predetermined magnetic field ramp or magnetic field profile during a measurement period. A measurement arrangement is also provided to measure one or more properties of the sample during the measurement period, in order to test sample properties at a plurality of different magnetic fields. The apparatus may be particularly suited to magneto-optical measurements, including Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect measurements. The apparatus may be used for testing of hard disk platters.
