About

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to determine if the DermaMonitor camera can accurately determine burn size in patients with 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree burns, with exploratory aim of testing a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) program for determining burn depth. The main aims are:

The primary aim of this study is to assess an objective process for the classification of burn size using the DermaMonitor wound camera.
An exploratory aim of this study is to begin to train an Artificial Intelligence (AI) program to classify burn depth (1st, 2nd, 3rd degree) using the 3D images from this novel wound camera.

Researchers will compare DermaMonitor size classification and AI depth classification to clinician determinations. Participants will have images taken of their burn. Participation ends when the images are taken.
