NIR imaging can be used to find vessels under the skin
Application of Near-Infrared Imaging
NIR imaging can be used to monitor wound healing and to find blood vessels under the skin+
(λ = 685, 780, and 830).
Application of Near-Infrared Imaging
Currently used NIR cameras are expensive
Medical Near-Infrared Cameras
The purpose of this study is to manufacture a cheap near-IR camera and application for use with smart phones to test whether the device can detect areas of skin at risk for ulceration.
