Overview
Thermography allows contactless measurement of surface temperature of objects, digital temperature display and graduate fields. Currently, this issue received increased attention since it is based on global efforts to give medical thermography in normal clinical practice. It is a noninvasive diagnostic method by which the disease can be diagnosed as early vascular system diseases, skin diseases, cancer, etc. The essence of research is to establish a reference sample thermograms using thermovision devices that convert thermal energy emitted. The reference sample of thermography was a statistically relevant number of healthy subjects, which was the basis for the creation of thermal atlas of the human body.
