Abstract

chronic diabetic foot ulcers Diffuse Photon Density Wave Frequency-domain near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) hemoglobin wound healing
Sixteen human diabetic foot ulcers were interrogated using a near infrared wound monitor that is based on Diffuse Photon Density Wave (DPDW) methodology of Near Infrared spectroscopy. Temporal changes of oxy- and total hemoglobin concentration were significantly different in healing vs. non-healing wounds.
