Zusammenfassung:	Methods and systems are provided for evaluating injection sites on a body of a patient. The methods / systems may instruct a patient to place one or more capacitance sensors in contact with a potential injection site on the body of the patient. The methods / systems may also comprise using a processing circuit to receive data indicative of a capacitance of body tissue at the potential injection site, as measured by the one or more capacitance sensors. The methods / systems may also comprise generating, using the processing circuit, an indication of a level of pain that would be expected to be experienced by the patient from a potential injection at the potential injection site based on the received capacitance.
