Spectral AI (Nasdaq: MDAI) has completed a proof-of-concept for its wound measurement technology that calculates the total body surface area (TBSA) of burns. This technology, integrated into the DeepView® System for burn indication (DeepView AI®-Burn), provides fast, accurate, and standardized measurements to improve patient treatment decisions.
Unlike current methods, Spectral AI's technology utilizes image capture to deliver distance, area, and volume measurements with sub-millimetric accuracy, without manual markers. It generates burn size and depth calculations in seconds, aiding clinicians in treatment decisions. The company believes this technology offers a more comprehensive representation of acute burn injuries and could potentially change the standard of care in burn wound treatment.
