A wide-angle, 16:9 aspect ratio photograph of a woman, Dr. Iman Bar, with long blonde hair, wearing a black top and blue medical gloves, providing care to a patient’s leg in a home-like setting. This is the featured image for an article about Wounds Healing in Elderly Patients. She is smiling at the camera while using a handheld medical laser device that emits a bright red light onto a bandaged area of the patient's lower leg. In the background, there is a cozy living room featuring a grey sofa, framed family photos on a mantle and walls, and a bookshelf. To the left, a small rolling medical cart holds supplies like gauze, tape, and a bottle of solution. The patient is lying down, covered by a tan blanket, with their leg resting on a blue and white medical pad.
