Medical Thermography

Medical thermography (also called infrared thermography) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses a special infrared camera to measure heat patterns on the surface of the body.

How it works

The camera detects infrared radiation (heat) coming from your skin and produces a thermal image showing areas that are relatively warmer or cooler.

Changes in skin temperature can sometimes be associated with things such as:

• Increased blood flow or inflammation

• Certain circulation problems

• Nerve-related abnormalities

• Musculoskeletal inflammation or injury

• Changes in skin temperature associated with some medical conditions

Is it safe?

Yes. Thermography is generally considered non-contact and non-invasive. It doesn't use X-rays or other ionizing radiation.
