Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a severe complication among diabetic patients, often leading to amputation or even death. Early detection of infection and ischemia is essential for improving healing outcomes, but current diagnostic methods are invasive, time-consuming, and costly. There is a need for non-invasive, efficient, and affordable solutions in diabetic foot care.
