The thickness of different layers of skin plays an important role in monitoring the skin health, skin aging and the diagnosis of many skin abnormalities such as seborrheic keratoses, basal cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, psoriasis, and actinic porokeratosis. So far, detecting the first intensity peak and the immediate valley on the smoothed averaged A-line profile of the optical coherence tomography (OCT) B-scan image has been one of the most popular ways to find the skin layers. In this paper, we present an image processing algorithm to automatically detect stratum corneum layer and the boundaries between the main skin layers; epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. The algorithm has been evaluated using 31 fingertip OCT images of variety of ethnic groups. |
