Official Title: Near-infrared Spectroscopic Tomography (NIRST) and ICG-based Perfusion Imaging to Diagnose and Assess Muscle Viability in High Energy Trauma at Risk for Acute Compartment Syndrome: A Pilot Study

Brief Summary: This is a prospective observational study of patients with suspected Acute Compartment Syndrome.
The primary objective of this work is to determine whether intensity changes associated with the NIRST signal, reflecting oxy- and deoxy-hemaglobin and water concentrations or ICG fluorescence signal, reflecting tissue perfusion, can be associated with development of Acute Compartment Syndrome and identification of at-risk soft tissue and muscle.
