AI-Powered OCT System Revolutionizes Wound Monitoring

Biomedical engineers from Duke University and Nokia Bell Labs developed a non-invasive imaging platform to monitor wound healing ^[1][2]. The system combines optical coherence tomography (OCT) with deep learning algorithms to assess tissue regeneration ^[1][3]. Clinicians can now measure vascular changes beneath the skin’s surface without traditional biopsies ^[1][2]. This technology provides objective data on how wounds heal in real-time ^[3]. It offers more accuracy than standard visual inspections used by doctors ^[1]. By analyzing deep skin layers, the AI helps predict recovery outcomes for patients ^[2][3].
