Abstract

We developed a 94 GHz reflectometer for imaging skin burns under near-field conditions. Porcine skin was used as a surrogate for human skin. We validated Jackson's model and imaged burned letters. These experiments demonstrate the feasibility of this technology in assisting doctors with the analysis of second and third-degree burns.
