A 3D machine vision method for non-invasive assessment of respiratory function

Abstract: Background Respiratory function testing is important for detecting and monitoring illness, however, it is difficult for some patients, such as the young and severely ill, to perform conventional tests that require cooperation and/or patient contact. Method A new method was developed for non‐contact breathing measurement, employing photometric stereo to capture the surface topography of the torso of an unconstrained subject. The surface is integrated to calculate time‐dependent volume changes during respiration… Show more

“…An important trend in modern medicine is to develop less-invasive diagnostic and therapeutic techniques that can replace invasive procedures, while maintaining high accuracy and efficacy. 1,2 In addition, patients expect to be involved, and that their preferences be considered. 3 The use of digital systems in clinical practice allows data collection, computer analysis, and machine learning as well as development of algorithms that were not possible in the past.…”

“…This would be expected to assist with early identification of the condition, enabling optimal dispensation of drugs or other therapy for appropriate and tailored treatment. These considerations led to the development in CMV of an optical system that employs a technique designated as ‘Novel non‐invasive assessment of respiratory function’ (NORM) . NORM also employs PS for 3D surface recovery , but on a larger scale, and here the recovery is continuous and in real time (i.e.…”

“…A number of conditions have already been addressed by research in CMV that has confirmed the utility of high resolution 3D machine vision for generating clinically useful data. Example conditions, and their associated medical vision devices are as follows: skin cancer (the SA) , respiratory illnesses and scoliosis (the NORM system) , plagiocephaly (PLAGIO – here both GS and PS were employed) , and 3D expression analysis (the UWE 4D PS System) . The latter enables real‐time analysis of 3D changes in facial expression (e.g.…”

“…After the server receives the transmission request, it establishes a connection with the client for image transmission. 23 After the image transmission is completed, the server performs human target detection on the image and pushes the results to the client. The client prioritizes the detection results and displays them in the monitoring screen in real time.…”
