Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Photoelectric volumetric tracing (PPG) exhibits high sensitivity and specificity in flap monitoring. Deep learning (DL) is capable of automatically and robustly extracting features from raw data. In this study, we propose combining PPG with 1D convolutional neural networks (1D-CNN) to preliminarily explore the method's ability to distinguish the degree of embolism and to localize the embolic site in skin flap arteries.
