The Role and Future of Artificial Intelligence in Wound Care
Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) has undergone rapid development in healthcare in recent years and is playing an increasingly important role in wound care. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the potential applications of AI in wound diagnosis, classification, monitoring of wound healing, and support of therapeutic decision-making. This narrative review is based on findings from the international literature and selected clinical application examples. The available evidence suggests that image-based algorithms and predictive models can improve diagnostic accuracy, forecast the woundhealing outcomes, and contribute to the development of personalized woundtreatment strategies. Overall, AI is expected to become a key component of more efficient, standardized, and patient-centered wound management in the future, although its implementation requires careful regulation and thorough clinical validation.

The Role of Dermoscopy in the Diagnosis of Chronic Wounds and the Monitoring of Wound Healing
Abstract: The diagnosis and management of chronic wounds represent a significant challenge in everyday clinical practice. The traditional clinical and etiological approach is often insufficient to accurately determine the underlying cause of the wound, particularly in cases of atypical or therapy-resistant ulcers. Dermatoscopy is a non-invasive, repeatable, and cost-effective diagnostic method that enables detailed analysis of the morphological and vascular characteristics of the wound bed. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of the role of dermatoscopy in the differential diagnosis of typical and atypical chronic wounds, as well as in monitoring the wound-healing process, based on our own clinical experience and the relevant international literature.
