Abstract
The new LSPI instrument compared favorably with the established LDI instrument, yielding similar results. The considerably faster scan time and higher resolution of the LSPI method provides a distinct clinical advantage, both in terms of patient comfort and for reliably matching perfusion characteristics to their associated anatomical features. The fast temporal response of the LSPI instrument could be used to monitor near real-time responses to mechanical or pharmacological interventions to study dynamic vascular changes to burn damaged tissues.
