A system of measuring surface relief and elasticity of the skin

An opticoelectronic system for measurement of a surface microprofile and elasticity of the skin in real time has been developed operating with a source of radiation having small time coherence. The frequency of measurement is 120 Hz, accuracy at least 3 microns. The system can be used for anthropological inspections, study of age and pathological changes in the skin.

A total of 280 children and adolescents with congenital and acquired mandibular defects and deformations were treated. The main principle in the treatment of such children is to begin treatment as early as possible. Stages of rehabilitation and scope of therapeutic measures for each stage are determined. The best results were attained in patients administered multiple-modality treatment by surgical, orthodontic, physiotherapeutic methods and therapeutic exercises at an early age immediately after the defect was diagnosed.
