Summary

This study tests a new, non-invasive light-based monitor to detect poor blood supply early in transplanted tissue after head and neck cancer surgery. About 60 adults undergoing reconstructive surgery will use the device, and researchers will improve its design based on feedback. The goal is to catch problems quickly so surgeons can intervene and save the transplanted tissue.
