DIGITAL ANALYSIS OF A DIGITAL IMAGE REPRESENTING A WOUND FOR ITS AUTOMATIC CHARACTERISATION

Some embodiments are directed to a mobile terminal allowing the determination of information relating to a wound, including a photographic apparatus for acquiring an image of a zone containing the wound and device adapted for determining a first likelihood map associated with a first characteristic of the zone by using a first classifier; determining a second likelihood map associated with a second characteristic, by using a second classifier, distinct from the first classifier; segmenting the image into regions of homogeneous colour; matching the regions with the first and second maps, and adapting these regions so as to determine regions corresponding substantially to the wound, and determine these items of information on the basis of these regions and displaying them on a screen of the terminal.
