Simulating light transport through skin for color prediction of port wine stain lesions: a review.
A survey of the literature is presented regarding the simulation of port wine stain (PWS) skin color. Knowledge of PWS features, such as the depths and diameters of affected vessels, is essential for informing laser treatment. These may be determined through the inverse application of a skin model. The techniques which have been applied to achieve this are analyzed in detail. Radiative transfer...
متن کاملA New Monte Carlo Programme for Simulating Light Transport through PWS Skin
A new Monte Carlo programme is presented for simulating light transport through clinically normal skin and skin that has Port Wine Stains (PWS) vessels. The program consists of an eight layer mathematical skin model constructed from optical coefficients described previously. A simulation including diffuse illumination at the surface and subsequent light transport through the model is carried ou...
متن کاملA Comparison of Acquired Port-wine Stain with Congenital Port-wine Stain Using an Image Analyzer.
BACKGROUND Recent reports have proposed that there were no differences between acquired port-wine stain (APWS) and congenital port-wine stain (CPWS) except the onset of disease. Pulsed dye laser (PDL) therapy is regarded as the treatment of choice in PWS. Although in some articles, APWS might have shown a better response to PDL than CPWS, this is still controversial. It has been assumed however...
متن کاملCutaneous New World Leishmaniasis on a Port-wine stain birthmark*
We present an interesting case report of two sarcoid-like lesions on a port-wine stain (PWS) birthmark in a Brazilian patient which on investigation proved to be cutaneous leishmaniasis.
متن کاملAcquired Port-Wine stain: Report of two cases
Acquired port-wine stain is a rare vascular lesion that mimics a congenital port-wine stain clinically and histologically, but is acquired after birth. A survey on more than 60 reported cases in the literature reveals that most of these cases are idiopathic, but some of the cases developed after physical or mechanical trauma, hormonal changes, chronic sun exposure, and medications (OCP, i...
