Testing by Pressure Scans • Computers have helped scan the foot measuring pressures exerted on the various parts. • It also quantifies pressures, peak pressures • Pressures beyond limit of tolerance – the final argument for ulcers to ocuur
Computer pressure scans • The red areas will signify areas of abnormally high pressures • It also shows the manner in which foot falls on the ground and the area that comes in contact with the ground, the axis of the foot etc • This identifies areas of future ulceration
