Résumé | Clinically, skin color, temperature, and capillary perfusion are used to assess tissue viability following microvascular tissue transfer. However, clinical signs that arise as a consequence of poor perfusion become evident only after several hours of compromised perfusion. This study demonstrates the potential usefulness of optical/infrared multispectral imaging in the prognosis of tissue viability immediately post-surgery. Multispectral images of a skin flap model acquired within 1 h of surgical elevation are analyzed in comparison to the final 72-h clinical outcome with a high degree of correlation. Regional changes in tissue perfusion and oxygenation present immediately following surgery are differentiated using fuzzy clustering and image processing algorithms. These methodologies reduce the intersubject variability inherent in infrared imaging methods such that the changes in perfusion are reproducible and clearly distinguishable across all subjects. Clinically, an early prognostic indicator of viability such as this would allow for a more timely intervention following surgery in the event of compromised microvasculature. |
