Infra-red thermal imaging is a rapid and non-invasive procedure for
mapping skin temperature distribution of the human body. The
natural infra-red emission from the skin is captured by the imaging
camera, and is displayed as a digital image. Advanced software and
high resolution infra-red detectors has allowed for a renaissance
in the use of infra-red thermal imaging or thermography in medical
research and practice. Thermal imaging provides a two dimensional
map of skin temperature, which can often indicate a localisation of
hypo or hyperthermia and its major clinical value is in its high
sensitivity to pathology in the vascular, muscular, neural and
skeletal systems and as such can contribute to the pathogenesis and
diagnosis. After a brief review of theory and technology of
infra-red imaging the bulk of the book consists of a collection of
clinical case studies demonstrating the wide variety of
applications for thermography in modern medicine. The combined
expertise from a number of centres is used to create a database of
images that will be invaluable for practitioners in making
diagnoses and measuring treatment efficacy.
