Please refer to the selection of real case studies below (patient identities protected). They illustrate how laser Doppler images map tissue blood flow over burns, providing immediate predictions of healing times for all areas. Where available, clinical opinion is provided with a standard Lund and Browder chart, together with laser Doppler predictions, and final outcomes. In many cases, clinical opinion differs from the accurately interpreted laser Doppler prediction, illustrating the value of the LDI technique when clinical appearance is deceptive.
