Photo Documentation of Diabetic Feet – When Does the Fine Threaten?
Validated facts
Image documentation in diabetic foot syndrome is clinically indicated, but under data protection law constitutes health data under Art. 9 GDPR. Private phones without consent and TOMs are risky.
In plain language
The photo of the toe is a medical document, not an Instagram before-and-after.
Security relevance & practical tip
Standardised photo consent form and separation of cosmetic vs. podiatric use.
