 Diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers constitute an increasing health problem in Denmark concurrent with an ageing population and an increase in diabetes prevalence. Diabetic foot ulcers belong to the most serious and costly complications. Several studies have found that the size and depth of the ulcer is one of the major etiologic factors for delayed healing. Wound measurement is important in the monitoring of the wound healing process. For the last decade different 3D techniques for measuring ulcers have been proposed in order to measure ulcer volume, but none of the technologies have been widely used. A 3D photo-optical camera has been developed, which is able to measure ulcer area and volume.
