3D sequential spatial and thermal measurements. L Zou, F Fortune, L Nibali, N Gkranias, N Mardas, N Donos.

3dMD Customer Research, Dental

A pair of thermal cameras were integrated to a 3dMDface.t system to capture 3D spatial and thermal image at the same time. The captured images were registered and analysed using 3dMDvultus software. An analytical methodology was established to measure the volumes and temperatures in the same region of interest to quantify the changes within the same boundary.
