Infrared Thermography Shows That a Temperature Difference of 2.2°C (4°F) or Greater Between Corresponding Sites of Neuropathic Feet Does Not Always Lead to a Diabetic Foot Ulcer Open
Background: There is emerging interest in the application of foot temperature monitoring as means of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) prevention. However, the variability in temperature readings of neuropathic feet remains unknown. The aim of thi…

Infrared thermography and ulcer prevention in the high‐risk diabetic foot: data from a single‐blind multicentre controlled clinical trial Open
Aim To assess the usefulness of monthly thermography and standard foot care to reduce diabetic foot ulcer recurrence. Methods People with diabetes ( n = 110), neuropathy and history of ≥ 1 foot ulcer participated in a single‐blind multicen…

Reliability of a novel thermal imaging system for temperature assessment of healthy feet Open
Background Thermal imaging is a useful modality for identifying preulcerative lesions (“hot spots”) in diabetic foot patients. Despite its recognised potential, at present, there is no readily available instrument for routine podiatric ass…

Comparison of Different Image Enhancing Techniques for Medical Thermal Images Open
Medical infrared (IR) images are, like other medical images, sensitive to noise, which affects directly the temperature measurement of the subject. There are several noise removal techniques that have good performance on digital images, bu…
