Prospective Study to Assess the Utility and Validity of a Chromameter in the Assessment of Infantile Hemangiomas

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the feasibility, reproducibility, validity, and responsiveness of the Chromameter CR‐400 for assessing erythema in infantile hemangiomas (IHs). Results demonstrated high inter‐ and intra‐rater reliability and consistent measurement accuracy, outperforming a subjective visual analog scale (VAS) in detecting subtle changes. While limited by a small sample size, the chromameter CR‐400 shows promise as an objective tool for monitoring IH progression and potentially treatment response.
