Vesta Imager: Handheld Imager for Rapid Burn Wound Assessment
Abstract
Background: Primary methods to determine burn severity are visual observation and histology. Visual diagnoses are only 50% accurate.
Project Goal: We seek to develop a low cost, handheld imaging device for the rapid and accurate assessment of burn wound injuries. This device will be available at all types of health care institutions.
