About This Trial
This pilot device trial aims to test the feasibility of using photoacoustic images to monitor tissue perfusion and to guide post-surgical wound treatment. Through this pilot study, the investigators will test the feasibility, identify any practical issues, and acquire essential information (e.g., drop-off rate, variation in wound healing rate) to guide future large-scale studies.
