## Abstract ## Purpose To assess the intraβ and interobserver agreement of commonly reported foot structure measurements in diabetic patients with neuropathy using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). ## Materials and Methods In 23 neuropathic diabetic patients and five ageβmatched healthy controls
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is believed to cause postural instability due to abnormal proprioception. We assessed body sway in four groups, each of 20 subjects, matched for age, sex, and BMI: non-diabetic controls, non-neuropathic diabetic controls, subjects with diabetic neuropathy and no histor
The two major components of the microcirculation in the diabetic neuropathic foot have been examined in detail. Nutritive capillary blood flow was measured directly using the non-invasive technique of television microscopy, applied to the toe nailfold. Arteriovenous shunt flow was assessed using the
