Skin characteristics are analyzed. A device acquires a digital image of an area of skin of a user. A processor quantitatively analyzes the digital image to determine a characteristic of all or part of the area of skin which is indicative of a skin condition of interest. Depending on the results of the quantitative analysis, the processor provides information to the user about the area of skin relative to the condition of interest. The information provided to the user is not necessarily sufficient for a definitive medical diagnosis and may include an indication to the user as to whether a knowledgeable person should evaluate the area of skin.

La présente invention concerne l'analyse de caractéristiques cutanées. Un dispositif acquiert une image numérique d'une zone de peau d'un utilisateur. Un processeur analyse quantitativement l'image numérique pour déterminer une caractéristique de tout ou partie de la zone de peau qui révèle un état cutané d'intérêt. En fonction des résultats de l'analyse quantitative, le processeur fournit des informations à l'utilisateur au sujet de la zone de peau se rapportant à l'état d'intérêt. Les informations fournies à l'utilisateur ne sont pas nécessairement suffisantes pour un diagnostic médical définitif et peuvent comprendre une consigne à l'utilisateur quant à l'éventuelle évaluation de la zone cutanée par une personne bien informée.
