A quantitative comparison of plantar soft tissue strainability distribution and homogeneity between ulcerated and non-ulcerated patients using strain elastography [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H:
Journal of Engineering in Medicine. February 2022, 2022 The primary objective of this study was to develop a method that allows accurate quantification of plantar soft tissue stiffness distribution and homogeneity. The secondary aim of this study is to investigate if the differences in soft tissue stiffness distribution and homogeneity can be detected between ulcerated and non-ulcerated foot. Novel measures

Diabetic Foot Ulcer Grand Challenge 2021: Evaluation and Summary [PDF]
, 2021 Diabetic foot ulcer classification systems use the presence of wound infection (bacteria present within the wound) and ischaemia (restricted blood supply) as vital clinical indicators for treatment and prediction of wound healing. Studies investigating the use of automated computerised methods of classifying infection and ischaemia within diabetic foot

Current Opinion in Orthopedics, 1994 A comprehensive program focused on foot-specific patient education, skin and nail care, and protective footwear lowers the incidence of diabetic foot ulcers and lower extremity amputations. Orthopedic or podiatric consultations are warranted for those "at risk" or with foot ulcers.

Boosting EfficientNets Ensemble Performance via Pseudo-Labels and Synthetic Images by pix2pixHD for Infection and Ischaemia Classification in Diabetic Foot Ulcers [PDF]
, 2021 Diabetic foot ulcers are a common manifestation of lesions on the diabetic foot, a syndrome acquired as a long-term complication of diabetes mellitus. Accompanying neuropathy and vascular damage promote acquisition of pressure injuries and tissue death due to ischaemia. Affected areas are prone to infections, hindering the healing progress.
