More Information
Summary:Utilization of electrostatic sensor elements is known in relation to obtaining images from a surface such as that of a patient with regard to anomalies including carcinomas. Electrostatic sensor elements, by their nature, are susceptible to creating spurious results in terms of their location with respect to the surface of the subject to be viewed. By providing a visual camera within an array of electrostatic sensor elements the electrostatic charge distribution image is provided by the camera. The image can be overlaid and married with the visual image in a proportionate ratio. In such circumstances an improved final image is provided with inherent visual references to allow analysis of the combined rich display image. A visual camera such as a CCD is used as it is substantially of the same size as the electrostatic sensor elements.
