The presented database contains thermal images (thermograms) of the plantar region. The database was obtained from 122 subjects with a diabetes diagnosis (DM group) and 45 non-diabetic subjects (control group). The relevance of this database consists in to study how the temperature is distributed in the plantar region of both groups and how their differences can be measured. Previous reports in the literature have established that an increase in the plantar temperature is associated with a higher ulceration risk.
