Pressure injury detection using alternate light: a proof-of-concept study
Evidence of tissue damage that extended beyond that visualised under white light was noted with ALS. Usefulness of ultrasound was limited over bony prominences where there was too little subcutaneous tissue. Further research is warranted to investigate the potential application of ALS for the early detection of PIs.
