Abstract

Burn depth objective classification is of paramount importance for decision making and treatment. Despite the wide variety of burn depth assessment methods tested so far, none of them have gained wide clinical application. Here, we introduce a new approach for burn depth assessment based on hyperspectral imaging combined with a spectral index-based technique that exploits specific spectral bands to map skin areas with different burn degrees. The spectral index amplifies the contrast between normal skin and areas with different degrees of burn, taking advantage of the differences in spectral amplitudes that occur as a result of the morphological and physiological changes occurring in burned skin. We demonstrate that by using the new measurable spectral index, it is possible to generate accurate burn classification maps showing spatial distribution of burn types in the affected body areas, facilitating the decision-making process and prognosis evaluation. The results highlight the potential of the new hyperspectral metric in the field of burn depth classification and its applicability in hospital settings seems promising.
