Bioengineering of the skin : cutaneous blood flow and erythema

Bioengineering of the Skin: Cutaneous Blood Flow and Erythema focuses on the objective measurement of two major parameters of skin function: blood flow and erythema. It covers noninvasive techniques that measure microcirculation and redness. It also discusses laser Doppler velocimetry, photoplethysmography, remittance spectroscopy and chromametry. The text includes research data on skin diseases, as well as methods for measuring skin microcirculation, international guidelines for standardizing measurements, and a review of current literature.
