Abstract

High definition digital cameras built into smartphones are now widely accessible and reasonably priced. Such gadgets' exceptional portability and mobility make them particularly appealing for use in therapeutic settings. For the purpose of simplifying and streamlining wound measurement and recording, smartphone specific applications like Imitomeasure have been developed. As a non contact digital planimetry application, the Imitomeasure app has an edge over other techniques. There are several ways to measure a wound, including using a photograph, a comparison, a ruler, or a graph.1 When the Imitomeasure app's effectiveness in measuring wounds was examined, it was discovered to be a useful tool. In this study, the Imitomeasure app's goal was to measure the size of the wound and take action to reduce it.
