Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The measurements consist of spectral images of the bruise. Based on these<br /><br>images the size of the hemoglobin and bilirubin areas can be determined. Using<br /><br>the change of the size of these areas over time the healing of the bruise can<br /><br>be monitored and used to see the possible differences between the healing of<br /><br>the illuminated and the not illuminated bruise.</p><br>
