Abstract Burn depth is a critical factor in determining the healing potential of a burn as the extent of injury ultimately guides overall treatment. Visible Light Hyperspectral Imaging is an FDA-approved, non-invasive, and non-contrast imaging technology that uses light waves within the visible spectrum to evaluate skin and superficial soft tissue perfusion. In this case report, Visible Light Hyperspectral Imaging was used to evaluate a 37-year-old male who presented to the Emergency Department with a thermal burn of the trunk, back, and right upper extremity. Images were taken at initial evaluation, 6-hours post-injury, and again during daily dressing changes until hospital day five when patient underwent surgical debridement. In this patient, operative treatment was postponed until 89.7-hours post-injury, at which point the clinical exam showed clear visual demarcation in regions of irreversible damage. Comparatively, Visible Light Hyperspectral Imaging analysis of the permanently injured tissue demonstrated acute but varying changes in both oxygenated hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin at the time of initial evaluation. The most dramatic change in tissue oxygenation occurred between 6.5 and 39.3 hours, demonstrating Visible Light Hyperspectral Imaging’s ability to detect significant differences in oxygenation values between areas of second-degree superficial burns and areas of second degree deep and third degree burns in the acute period. The data suggest that the utilization of Visible Light Hyperspectral Imaging in this 6.5-39.3-hour window may help predict final burn depth before clinical assessment, potentially allowing for surgical intervention within the first 48-hours following injury.
