Comparison of approaches to create 3D models from image data for the telemedical treatment of psoriasis

Dermatologie FZI

Context

In Germany alone, over 8 million people suffer from chronic skin conditions. Wait times for university treatment appointments average 6 months, making it difficult to avoid disease flares and escalations. The HybridVITA project is researching a telemedical approach to enable the treatment of dermatology patients through an online offering via a smartphone app. In addition, a tactile interface is being developed to allow physicians to feel the patients' skin based on images and 3D models without the patients needing to be present. At FZI, an ultrasound board has been set up for this purpose and is now intended for further development.

Tasks

  • You familiarize yourself with image processing in the field of telemedicine.
  • You research existing approaches to generate 3D models from image data.
  • You test the approaches and compare them according to a self-designed evaluation matrix.

Requirements

  • You are studying electrical engineering, computer science, or a related field.
  • You are committed, motivated, and have a diligent and conscientious work approach.
