Disruptive Tech in the Clinic: AI-Powered Thermography for Early DFU Detection #ActAgainstAmputation

A new diagnostic accuracy study demonstrates how the combination of smartphone-based thermography and artificial intelligence (AI) could revolutionize routine screening for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). This technology offers a scalable, objective alternative to traditional manual exams, which are often episodic and highly dependent on examiner expertise. The Tech: TFScan The study evaluated TFScan, a system... Continue Reading →

Hospital stays and costs of telemedical monitoring versus standard follow-up for diabetic foot ulcer: an open-label randomized controlled study

Background Two randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have previously shown that telemedical monitoring of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) reduces the number of visits to the outpatient clinic, without losing treatment efficacy or increasing costs. Here we present the results of an open-label, randomised controlled trial designed to investigate whether telemonitoring, provided by an expert nurse (with... Continue Reading →
