laser speckle contrast imaging
Procedureblood flow recording during 30 minutes after 2 post-occlusive hyperaemia of 5 minutes separated by 30 minutes.
NCT Number: NCT01743612
The aim of the study is to determine if postocclusive hyperemia of palmar and dorsal face of the hand with Laser speckle contrast imaging discriminate between patients with systemic sclerosis, subjects with primary Raynaud's phenomenon and healthy subjects.

Microvascular dysfunction is a key event in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis. There are currently no test measuring it in clinical practice. Response to humeral occlusion is interesting and this response has been studied with laser Doppler flowmetry. More recently, laser imaging has been used analysing the granularity of the laser: laser Speckle Contrast Imaging which allow combining high temporal resolution to high spatial resolution.
The investigators proposed, in this study, to compare this imaging at basal and after post-occlusive hyperaemia of dorsal and palmar face of hand in 3 groups: healthy subjects, primary Raynaud's phenomenon and systemic sclerosis.

Exclusion criteria
blood flow recording during 30 minutes after 2 post-occlusive hyperaemia of 5 minutes separated by 30 minutes.
blood flow of the hand recording during 30 minutes in a cooling-box
Time frame: 30 minutes
The range of post-occlusive hyperemia response will be compared between the 3 arms.
Time frame: 30 minutes
The range of post-occlusive hyperemia response will be compared between zones.
Time frame: 30 minutes
comparison of range of post-occlusive hyperemia response with or without finger pad scars.
Time frame: 30 minutes
The interest of the signal analyses to distinguish systemic sclerosis, raynaud's phenomenon and healthy subjects will be studied with entropy and Fourier transform.
Time frame: 30 minutes
The Range of post-occlusive hyperemia response will be compared between the 2 hand faces (palmar and dorsal).
Time frame: 30 minutes
Range of the diminution of blood flow in palmar and dorsal hand faces will be compared in the 3 groups
Time frame: Day 0 and Day 4
The reproductibility of the measure of blood flow after cooling will be studied twice, at day0 and 4 days later.
Time frame: 30 minutes
The range of blood flow after cooling on pulpar and dorsal face of hand will be compared between the 3 groups.
