Optical laser scanning techniques: 3D surface measurement using laser scanning

The surface of your body was measured using laser light.

The laser light is directed to the areas of your body that are to be measured. The surface of the body throws this light back again. The reflected light is measured. A computer generates a 3D image from the values measured.

Additional indicator

If necessary, additional letters are appended to OPS codes to indicate which side of the body is affected.

  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides

Further information

Note

Your doctor will assist you with any health-related questions and explain the OPS code to you in a direct consultation if necessary.
