Paper Abstract
Quantitative histologic markers of thermal damage in collagen include changes of intensity and color shifts of birefringent images and hyalinization of collagen fibers using transmission polarizing microscopy (TPM) and light microscopy (LM). These changes are seen in routinely prepared paraffin histologic sections stained with dyes readily available in most pathology and histology laboratories. The quantitative histologic markers of thermal damage have been used to map extent of thermal injury and promise to be useful for investigations of the mechanisms of photothermal laser-tissue interactions.
