Figure 2.

Structure of skin depths of destroyed cells according to burn degree are shown. Burn injuries depicted are as follows: (I) superficial; (II) shallow partial thickness; (III) deep partial thickness; and (IV) full thickness. Histology is a representative dorsal skin segment from our porcine burn experiments where skin thickness is slightly greater than that in humans.
