Abstract: This paper describes a development of a system for ultrasonic measurement of a human skin surface deformation in-vivo. A measuring method is based on pulse-echo measurements of an ultrasonic wave propagating in the skin surface. The developed measuring system is microprocessor controlled and consists of self designed transmitting and receiving circuits for evaluation of the distance between ultrasonic transducers. The system has been tested and considered as the working prototype.
Keywords: in vivo; skin surface deformation; ultrasonic distance measurement; ultrasound joint flexure
