Ferumoxytol-enhanced Imaging of Osteomyelitis

NCT05959590 PHASE1 COMPLETED

Diabetic foot infections contribute to 75,000 hospitalizations in the US each year. There is a lifetime incidence of 15-25% of foot infections in diabetics. The investigators hypothesize that ferumoxytol (FDA approved for use in CKD patients, unlike gadolinium) will improve the accuracy of MR imaging in the diagnosis of osteomyelitis by allowing for the specific imaging of macrophages that have taken up the iron-based compound. In this study the investigators will image 12 patients with suspected diabetic osteomyelitis using ferumoxytol-contrasted MRI, and evaluate the feasibility of this approach.
