At the beginning of this chapter, after general introduction to fingerprint
technology, the categorization of skin diseases is introduced. This
categorization is done on the base of possible influence to the process of
fingerprint recognition. The second part is devoted to the description of
acquired fingerprint data using various fingerprint sensors from patients in the
university hospital, showing differences in images. The third part contains the
description of possibilities for detecting a skin disease in fingerprint and its
removability (image enhancement). The last part is oriented on generation of skin
diseases into synthetic fingerprints. Herewith we would like to be able to
generate large-scale databases for testing of fingerprint processing algorithms.
