Publication number: 20230240542Abstract: A method of monitoring a patient's foot forms a thermogram of the sole of at least one foot of the patient, and determines whether the thermogram presents at least one of a plurality of prescribed patterns. The method also compares the thermogram against a prior thermogram of the same foot, and produces output information indicating the emergence of an ulcer on a given portion on the at least one foot as a function of 1) whether the thermogram is determined to present the at least one pattern, and 2) the comparison with the prior thermogram, which shows non-ulcerated tissue at the given location.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: David Robert Linders, Jonathan David Bloom, Jeffrey Mark Engler, Brian Jude Petersen, Adam Geboff, David Charles Kale

Publication number: 20220211277Abstract: A method and apparatus for evaluating emergence of an ulcer each uses at least one temperature detection modality to form a first thermogram and a second thermogram of the sole of at least one foot. Each thermogram forms a substantially continuous set of two-dimensional temperature values across the sole of the (at least one) foot. The thermograms have features; namely, the first thermogram has first features and the second thermogram has second features. The method and apparatus thus control a device to apply at least one transformation to the first and second thermograms to align the first features with corresponding second features, and determine, at any thermogram location, if at least one of the thermograms presents one of a plurality of patterns indicative of inflammation. Finally, the method and apparatus each produce output information indicating the result of the determination of whether the thermograms present one of the plurality of patterns.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 24, 2022Publication date: July 7, 2022Inventors: Brian Petersen, Jonathan David Bloom, David Robert Linders, Jeffrey Mark Engler
