abstract = "Measuring blood perfusion is important in medical care. However, currently available devices to measure blood perfusion are bulky, expensive and not easy-to-use. In this work a compact and portable low-cost prototype device for remote monitoring of palm skin microcirculation has been developed. Presented device consists of precisely controlled near-infrared illuminators (760nm peak wavelength) and video camera. The device with the custom designed software provides stable uniform illumination of curved skin surfaces, using feedback algorithm. Verification tests of this device showed improvements in the quality of skin blood perfusion maps in the case when the feedback system was used.",
