MedicalResearch.com Interview with: Conor L. Evans, PhD Assistant Professor Harvard Medical School Wellman Center for Photomedicine Massachusetts General Hospital Affiliate Faculty, Harvard University Biophysics Program Charlestown, MA Medical Research: What are the main findings of the study? Dr. Evans: The main finding of this research is that topically applied rapid-drying wound dressings containing optical sensors for oxygen can be used to quantify skin oxygenation status in a way that reflects the viability of the underlying tissue, and therefore has the potential to aid in the clinical care for patients with burns, grafts and various other skin conditions.
