Temperature is the most frequently measured physical quantity, second only to time. Infrared
(IR) technology has been utilized successfully in astronomy (for a summary, see Hermans …

This book is a guide for the constantly growing community of the users of medical thermal
imaging. It describes where and how an infrared equipment can be used in a strictly …

The goal of this work is to analyze the capabilities of a new photothermal (PT) radiometry
system to control temperature during laser thermal therapy. The main feature of this system …

The aim of this study was to investigate the reproducibility of skin surface infrared
thermography (IRT) measurements and determine the factors influencing the variability of …

The use of thermographic techniques has increased as infrared detector technology has
evolved and improved. For laser-tissue interactions, thermal cameras have been used to …

We determine temperature effect on the absorption and reduced scattering coefficients (μa
and μs′) of human forearm skin. Optical and thermal simulation data suggest that μa and …

Background and Objective: Infrared (IR) rays, which comprise approximately 40% of the
solar radiation which reaches the earth's surface, have received relatively scant attention. As …

Among the different defense health care technologies that were discussed in a series of
minisymposia at the 16th EMBS Annual International Conference in November 1994 …

Pulsed opto-thermal radiometry is a non-destructive, remote sensing infrared technique,
which has been successfully used in the biomedical studies 1-11. It is information rich but …

Dynamic thermal imaging (DTI) with infrared cameras is a non-invasive technique with the
ability to detect the most common types of skin cancer. We discuss and propose a …
