research Exploring the Role of Perfusion in Skin Graft Viability on the Scalp and Lower Limb: An Analysis of Graft Bed, Margin, and Donor Skin Using Laser Speckle

December 2024 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine”

This study found that wound bed perfusion strongly predicts skin graft viability by correlating with lower necrosis extension on both the scalp and lower limb, unlike perfusion of the wound margin and donor skin, which showed no significant correlation.
