  Aim: The purpose of this study is to provide a short description of the performance of various non-invasive Imaging techniques used for wound healing assessment described in the literature. Objective: Assessment of wounds carries both prognostic and diagnostic value thus determines treatment strategies and objectively examines the efficacy of emerging and novel wound therapies. Therefore, the aim of this article is to evaluate several objective imaging based wound assessment techniques. Methods: Electronic databases were searched for all available publications on the use of wound assessment devices on human and artificial wounds using appropriate search terms. The primary outcome was the reliability and reproducibility of measurement whilst the secondary outcome was the feasibility of the instrument. All studies un.. Read More»
