Foot hemodynamics using optical tomography: A potential biomarker of peripheral arterial disease
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is the narrowing of the arteries within the lower extremities, which inhibits blood flow to the foot. We present the use of dynamic diffuse optical tomography (DDOT) system to measure blood flow in the foot during venous and arterial occlusions. DDOT is a non-ionizing, contrast-free, and fast imaging modality. The DDOT system consists of 4 sensors, each containing four laser diodes (at wavelengths of 670, 780, 808, and 850 nm) and two silicon photodiodes. We examined 11 healthy subjects with a protocol consisting of five consecutive measurements. Biomarkers were extracted from changes in hemoglobin concentrations during the measurements. The results from a pilot study are presented in this report. The average increase in total hemoglobin was $\mathbf{17.2\pm 5.8}\ \mu \mathbf{M}$ during a measurement with 60 mmHg occlusion and $\mathbf{10.4\pm 6.7} \ \mu \mathbf{M}$ during a measurement with 180 mmHg occlusion. The biomarkers can quantify blood perfusion and oxygen consumption in the foot, and they have the potential to detect and monitor PAD.
