A method of measuring a body region of a human body includes recording at least two images of the body region from different camera positions, from which the contour lines are ascertained, for example, as a contrast. Used for scaling the images is a reference object with a reference zone, to which the camera is set in a perpendicular or near perpendicular viewing direction by means of an angle-determining device. The reference zone can be defined, for example, by perpendicularly protruding fins. From the projected images of the contour line and the reference zone, an individual model of the outside surface of the body region is subsequently ascertained by means of the reference model. From this individual model a prosthesis or orthesis can be fabricated.
