The crossover between engineering and medicine is a field of enormous possibilities. This scientific project is about to change the way we approach the assessment of the evolution of chronic open ulcers. The main objective of this project is to evaluate the ability of typical engineering tools such as photogrammetry to be used to measure the evolution of chronic ulcers. Specifically, this new method is used to evaluate the effectiveness of cold atmospheric plasma treatment compared to traditional methods.
Photogrammetry, a precise three-dimensional measurement technique, enable researchers to obtain objective data on the surface area, volume and other critical parameters of ulcers. This approach, combined with medical expertise, make it possible to establish essential correlations between treatment and wound evolution. This multidisciplinary approach demonstrates the synergy between engineering and medicine to address complex medical challenges.
If the results support the efficacy of cold atmospheric plasma treatment, it could represent a significant advance in chronic ulcer care, with the potential to dramatically reduce healing times. Furthermore, this project not only highlights the importance of collaboration between disciplines, but also points to the critical role of precision engineering in medicine, leading the way h
