Resumo(s)
Atypical body temperature values can be an indication of abnormal physiological processes
associated with several health conditions. Infrared thermal (IRT) imaging is an innocuous imaging
modality capable of capturing the natural thermal radiation emitted by the skin surface, which is
connected to physiology-related pathological states. The implementation of artificial intelligence
(AI) methods for interpretation of thermal data can be an interesting solution to supply a second
opinion to physicians in a diagnostic/therapeutic assessment scenario. The aim of this work was to
perform a systematic review and meta-analysis concerning different biomedical thermal applications
in conjunction with machine learning strategies. The bibliographic search yielded 68 records for a
qualitative synthesis and 34 for quantitative analysis. The results show potential for the implementation
of IRT imaging with AI, but more work is needed to retrieve significant features and improve
classification metrics.
