Popis: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of the stage and severity of the chronic diabetic foot ulcer (CDFU) is vital to increase the healing rate and to select the suitable treatment. We aim to assess the influence of low-intensity laser irradiation (LILI) and hyperbaric oxygenation therapy (HBOT) to accelerate the CDFU healing thru the transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcPO2) measurements. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventy-five diabetic patients (type 2) of both genders, their ages ranged from 40–65 years with CDFUs (duration of ulcer
