About this study

The objective of this study is to utilize a 3D camera to measure the volumes of hypertrophic scars and keloids in patients at specified time points. The time points for measurement include day 0, as well as 3, 6, and 12 months. The 3D camera will be evaluated for their efficacy in measuring and documenting the volumes of the scars. This evaluation will include volumetry, which is the measurement of the three-dimensional space occupied by an object.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • All patients with hypertrophic scars or keloids, written consent to participate in the study, minimum age of 18 years.

Exclusion criteria

  • Absence of written consent, unwillingness to contribute data, inability to understand the study protocol.
  • lack of hypertrophic scars or keloid

Treatment and study plan

3D-Pictures

Other

3D-Pictures will be taken of hypertrophic scars and keloids to document them.

Primary outcomes

  1. Measurability

    Time frame: Day 0, Month 3, 6 and 12

    The objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of utilizing 3D cameras to accurately measure hypertrophic scars and keloids. The primary outcome of this study is the measurement of the volumes of hypertrophic scars in cubic millimeters (equivalent to milliliters) over a period of one year. This will allow for an evaluation of the accuracy of 3D photography and for the observation of any potential changes.
