Experimental and numerical diagnosis of fatigue foot using convolutional neural network.
TL;DR: In this paper, an essential criterion for physiotherapy in injured athletes is defined. Muscle fatigue mechanism also is a crucial matter in designing a workout program, it is mainly related to physical injury, c...

Robust Edge Detection Method for Segmentation of Diabetic Foot Ulcer Images
TL;DR: The research discovered that the classical edge detectors cannot clearly locate ulcers in images with black-skin feet, and the proposed method offers lower computational times—an advantage that gives more insights into the possible application of the method in time-sensitive tasks.

Actual issues of treatment of neurotrophic complications in leprosy patients
TL;DR: In this paper , modern literature data on the treatment and prevention of neurotrophic complications of leprosy patients are presented, and the authors present a set of guidelines for these complications.

Localizing Region-Based Active Contours
S. Lankton,Allen Tannenbaum +1 more
TL;DR: A natural framework that allows any region-based segmentation energy to be re-formulated in a local way is proposed and the localization of three well-known energies are demonstrated in order to illustrate how this framework can be applied to any energy.

The effectiveness of footwear and offloading interventions to prevent and heal foot ulcers and reduce plantar pressure in diabetes: a systematic review
Sicco A. Bus,Gerlof D. Valk,R van Deursen,David G. Armstrong,Carlo Caravaggi,P. Hlaváček,K. Bakker,Peter R. Cavanagh +7 more
TL;DR: The goal of this review was to determine the available evidence on the use of footwear and offloading interventions for ulcer prevention, ulcer treatment, and plantar pressure reduction in the diabetic foot.
Journal Article
A comparison of wound area measurement techniques: visitrak versus photography.
TL;DR: The photographic method is an accurate alternative to Visitrak for measuring wound area, with no statistical difference in wound area measurement demonstrated during this study.
Journal Article
Two-dimensional wound measurement: comparison of 4 techniques.
TL;DR: Intrarater reliability was high for methods with low interrater reliability, suggesting that nurses are consistent in the direction of personal error, and only the SPG area measurements for single ratings were reliable enough for clinical or research purposes.

An active contour model for image segmentation based on elastic interaction
TL;DR: This paper proposes a new edge-based active contour method, which uses a long-range and orientation-dependent interaction between image boundaries and the moving curves while maintaining the edge fidelity, and is able to detect sharp features of the images.
