We propose a novel application of diffuse correlation spectroscopy to evaluate microvascular malfunctions of muscle tissue affected by hyperglycemia and determine their correlation with the severity of diabetic neuropathy at a later stage. Microvascular responses of the thigh muscle and the mechanical pain threshold of the hind paw of streptozotocin-induced type I diabetic rats were continuously monitored once per week for 70 days. Significantly decreased baseline blood flow and reactive hyperemia responses were observed as early as 1 week after hyperglycemia induction. The reactive hyperemia response at 2 weeks of hyperglycemia was highly correlated with the mechanical pain threshold at 8 weeks, at which time a decreased pain threshold was statistically confirmed in hyperglycemic rats relative to controls.
