Wound3DAssist: A Practical Framework for 3D Wound Assessment

Managing chronic wounds remains a major healthcare challenge, with clinical assessment often relying on subjective and time-consuming manual documentation methods. Although 2D digital videometry frameworks aided the measurement process, these approaches struggle with perspective distortion, a limited field of view, and an inability to capture wound depth, especially in anatomically complex or curved regions. To overcome these limitations, we present Wound3DAssist, a practical framework for 3D wound assessment using monocular consumer-grade videos. Our framework generates accurate 3D models from short handheld smartphone video recordings, enabling non-contact, automatic measurements that are view-independent and robust to camera motion. We integrate 3D reconstruction, wound segmentation, tissue classification, and periwound analysis into a modular workflow. We evaluate Wound3DAssist across digital models with known geometry, silicone phantoms, and real patients. Results show that the framework supports high-quality wound bed visualization, millimeter-level accuracy, and reliable tissue composition analysis. Full assessments are completed in under 20 minutes, demonstrating feasibility for real-world clinical use.

Syn3DWound: A Synthetic Dataset for 3D Wound Bed Analysis

Wound management poses a significant challenge, particularly for bedridden patients and the elderly. Accurate diagnostic and healing monitoring can significantly benefit from modern image analysis, providing accurate and precise measurements of wounds. Despite several existing techniques, the shortage of expansive and diverse training datasets remains a significant obstacle to constructing machine learning-based frameworks. This paper introduces Syn3DWound, an open-source dataset of high-fidelity simulated wounds with 2D and 3D annotations. We propose baseline methods and a benchmarking framework for automated 3D morphometry analysis and 2D/3D wound segmentation.
