Abstract
A method of assessing a feature on a patient's skin surface includes capturing (i) an image of the patient's skin surface with a camera of a portable capture device and (ii) range information with an auxiliary range measurement device that is attached to the portable capture device. Based on the range information, a single range value can be determined between the capture device and the patient's skin surface. In some embodiments, a scale can be associated with the image based on the single range value.
