New theme in Special Session ITA - Medical Thermography as a Green Health Imaging Technology

The latest research being conducted with the use of thermal imaging techniques illustrate the diversity of applications for infrared thermal imaging, and its successful implementation in medicine. With the explosion of Infrared thermal imagers on the market for all types of applications, the medical or health care area remains very specific with its requirements for obtaining high quality and consistent thermograms at space and time domain. Imaging environment controls, patient or subject preparation, capturing capabilities, technician training, and image processing features are all factors to be considered with usage of an infrared thermal imaging system. The multidimensional and multispectral ( Visible and IR up to 14µm) open new technical predispositions to improve and define the exact new noninvasive and chipper Green Health Imaging technology.
