The magnitude of the Dermacorder® signal can be influenced by the dielectric constant of the fluid placed on the wound. A. Dermacorder® scan of a wound on day 0 and day 12 using water (dielectric constant = 80) under the Saran layer. B. Scan of the same wound as in “A” on the same two days using olive oil (dielectric constant = 3) under the Saran. This was repeated 5 times with similar results.
