A wound may look normal to the human eye during an exam, but when a portion of the wound glows red or cyan in an image from the i:X, it reveals that dangerous amounts of bacteria are present. The physician can then treat the affected tissue and/or prescribe medication. Follow-up images with the MolecuLight i:X can also monitor progress, measure wound size, and help guide the patient’s treatment plan.
