Entec Health will be showcasing the Silhouette digital wound assessment and information management system this week at the 16th annual Scottish Conference of *The Diabetic Foot Journal.* Come and see us at **Stand 19** in the Exhibition area.

The conference is being held at The Marriott Hotel, Glasgow on Thursday 18 June 2015.

Silhouette is receiving a very positive response from the podiatry community in the UK. The Silhouette system enables diabetic foot care health professionals to capture, share and report diabetes foot ulceration progress data in a digital format for improved patient management.

**Silhouette supports clinicians to:**

1. Generate objective wound progress data using novel 3D wound measurement
2. Monitor response to treatment with quantified ulcer size data and wound progress charts
3. Establish non-contact wound assessment that is fast and easy to perform
4. Share a central digital database of ulcer assessment information across MDT care team
5. Utilise PDF wound assessment report for better documentation of DFU outcomes
