Research Focus
Dr. David A Reiter's lab focuses on improving the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers by using advanced imaging and blood analysis techniques. The lab's research aims to identify early markers of wound healing to prevent complications such as infections and amputations in diabetic patients. By exploring the relationship between blood flow, metabolism, and inflammatory responses, the lab seeks to develop innovative diagnostic tools and treatment strategies for better patient outcomes.
