Measuring collagen injury depth for burn severity determination using polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography
Abstract Determining the optimal treatment course for a dermatologic burn wound requires knowledge of the wound’s severity, as quantified by the depth of thermal damage. In current clinical practice, burn depth is inferred based exclusively on superficial visual assessment, a method which is subject...
