  Abstract

End Stage Renal Disease resulting from complications of the 4 top causes of death including diabetes and hyperpiesia becomes one of the major social problems these days in the context that this disease unaffordably increases the medical cost and decreases the quality of life. For a kidney disease, it is hard to diagnose, cure and recover as there are few subjective symptoms. Therefore, the prevention is very important. In this paper, we propose a method, which checks the abnormal state of the kidney, using the patient's face color and gloss which is employed for diagnosis in the oriental medicine. This method composes of two processes. The first is to acquire the patient's face data applying a polarizing filter and the next is to analyse relations between kidney disease and this data.
