Imaging infections in diabetic patients.
Infectious processes in diabetic patients may manifest in an unusual clinical manner, and a thorough understanding of available imaging modalities is helpful in making the diagnosis. Similarly, interpretation of imaging studies should be performed in conjunction with a thorough knowledge of the patient's clinical condition and the presence of neuropathic or vascular complications because these may affect image interpretation and choice of imaging modality.
