| dc.description.abstract | Medical infrared thermal imaging (MITI) is a technique that allows safe and non-invasive recording of skin surface temperature distribution. The images gained provide underlining physiological information on the blood flow, vasoconstriction/vasodilatation, inflammation, transpiration or other processes that can contribute to skin temperature. This medical imaging modality has been available for nearly six decades and has proved to be useful for vascular, neurological and musculoskeletal conditions. Since the recordings are digital, in the form of a matrix of numbers (image), it can be computationally analyzed by a specialist mainly performing processing and analysis operations manually supported by proprietary software solutions. This limits the number of images that can be processed, making difficult for knowledge to evolve, expertise to develop and information to be shared. This chapter aims to disclose the medical imaging method, along with its particularities, principles, applications, advantages and disadvantages. The chapter introduces all available classification and decision making methods that can be employed using digital information, together with a literature review of their operation in the biomedical applications of infrared thermal imaging. | pt_PT |
