title: [Optoelectronic volumetric method for facial soft tissue edemas].
abstract: The methods used up to now for the quantification of facial edemas fail to provide accurate volumetric measurements. The optoelectronic method presented allows, for the first time, a reproducible monitoring of preventive measures (e.g. treatment studies) based on the total volumes in facial swelling conditions.
