Point-and-Capture Wound Imaging at the Bedside for Diabetic Foot Visits
imaging
How bedside imaging and measurement can fit into a diabetic foot visit without slowing the clinician down.
Diabetic foot patients often need frequent, fast visits. Imaging that fits into the encounter keeps measurements consistent without adding steps.
What point-and-capture means
The clinician points a device at the wound and captures an image. Measurements are then derived from that image for the record, so there is no separate manual step.
Why consistency matters for DFU care
- Comparable images across visits make progress easier to judge
- Measurements stored with the note reduce transcription gaps
- A clear visual record helps multidisciplinary teams review a case remotely
Fitting it into the visit
- Capture the image during the foot exam.
- Review the measurements.
- Add vascular findings and the plan to the note.
- Sign and move on.

Imaging records the wound but does not assess blood flow, so vascular testing remains a separate clinical step. The primary post on TOBA explains why.
