Automatic quantitative analysis of structure parameters in the growth cycle of artificial skin using optical coherence tomography
Significance: Artificial skin (AS) is widely used in dermatology, pharmacology, and toxicology, and has great potential in transplant medicine, burn wound care, and chronic wound treatment. There is a great demand for high-quality AS product and a non-invasive detection method is highly desirable. Aim: To quantify the constructure parameters (i.e., thickness and surface roughness) of AS samples in the culture cycle and explore the growth regularities using optical coherent tomography (OCT). Approach: An adaptive interface detection algorithm is developed to recognize surface points in each A-scan, offering a rapid method to calculate parameters without constructing OCT B-scan pictures and ...
