Abstract 

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. Therefore, it is important to study how the thermal changes in the plantar region occur and how they can be measured in order to develop new diagnostic support tools that help the medical expert to take preventive actions. The thermogram database was obtained from 122 diabetic and 45 non-diabetic subjects. Extra information about the analysis of the thermograms for diabetic foot complications can be founded in the scientific reports of the corresponding author link.
