Temperature Variations in Plantar Angiosomes are Quantitatively Estimated: A Review

Aleena S

Thermography is a useful tool because it provides information that can help diagnose certain diseases quickly and non-invasively. In particular, the thermometer has been applied in the study of diabetic feet. However, most of these studies reported only qualitative information, making it difficult to measure meaningful parameters such as temperature change. These variations are important in the analysis of diabetic foot because they can yield knowledge, for example, of ulcer risk. Early detection of ulcer risk is considered an important research topic in the medical field, as its goal is to avoid serious complications that can lead to amputation. The absence of symptoms in the early stages of ulceration is a major obstacle in making a timely diagnosis in neuropathic subjects. The relationship between temperature and ulcer risk is well established in the literature, a method to obtain quantitative temperature differences in the soles of the feet of diabetics to detect ulcer risk is well established, proposed in this work. This method is based on the concept of angiosome and image processing.
