Diabetic Foot Infections

Diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO) is a bone infection of the foot that can occur in people with diabetes and may lead to serious complications, including amputation. Diagnosing DFO can be difficult. This prospective multicenter observational study will evaluate how accurately 18F-FDG PET/CT can diagnose DFO in patients who are already referred for this imaging test as part of their clinical care. The study will use current-generation digital PET/CT systems and standardized interpretation criteria. PET/CT findings will be compared with bone biopsy results when available, or with clinical and imaging findings obtained during at least 6 months of follow-up.

The purpose of this study is to estimate efficiency, tolerance, safety of "Foscelantan, medicinal plate 4.0x5.0 cm in package No. 1" among adult patients who have purulent-inflammatory processes of the skin and soft tissues due to the neuropathic form of diabetic foot syndrome or chronic venous insufficiency, phase I-II of the wound process.
