Thermal Screening for Early Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN)
Completed
Conditions studied: Diabetic Neuropathies, Diabetic Foot, Diabetic Retinopathy
In brief
The goal of this research is to develop better tools for diagnosing illness of the feet and legs of people who have diabetes. Investigators will use thermal videos of the foot to aid in the refinement of a system designed to detect signs of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The team of investigators will also look at diabetic eye disease and how it might relate to diabetic foot disease.
