on Clinical Thermal Imaging
Veterinary Infrared Program Thermal Image Review Program Sports Pages - Pro Football Team Introductory Webinar This
is an efficient way to learn about
medical and veterinary thermography.
Provided by experienced educators in
clinical infrared. Technical
Certification is given for learning
the practical elements and tools for
using thermal imaging.
 Close-up thermal image of eyes and nose. Thermal Imaging Software Going beyond the basics of thermal imaging software, ThermReview not only handles the essentials for thermographic readouts, it enhances the experience for those interested in really studying the detail and elements of an image. The standards of presenting temperature ranges, delta T, emissivity, graphing, identification and annotation are easily handled. Adding to that, there are many more features that are not available, or even possible, on other systems. Worldwide Research Over 6,000 published papers appear in the medical literature on thermography and thermal imaging. Some significant work has been compiled and selected from the various health areas. Work in diabetes, obstetrics, neurology, sports medicine, are just a few of the many important uses for this technology. It's far beyond just one application for evaluating human body heat.  First thermogram studies of expectant mothers. Ergonomics Many companies depend upon solid ergonomics programs to ensure good working situations for their employees. Thermal scans are an important tool for helping determine the physical capacity of the worker in relation to the job requirements. Quick color pictures confirm work related disorders and repetitive strain injuries.  |
Infrared
Thermal imaging cameras With the
Teletherm TIGER4 infrared camera, the thermal
image quality and sensitivity of measurement
is unequaled for a radiometric
thermal imaging system. Teletherm is
designed specifically
for medical and veterinary thermal scans, image
post-processing and analysis.
The technology
is from a development team with over three
decades in this field and specialists with
remote infrared passive sensing.

small animals can be
evaluated comfortably and easily
for all types of conditions that may
not be readily observed through
conventional means.
Infrared imaging is proving to be very useful in the equine field and dairy industry, among other unique applications such as canine massage therapy, endangered bird research, ocular stress in animals, evaluation of pharmaceutical use, and general veterinary research studies. Upcoming Seminars Clinical
infrared training seminars are held
periodically throughout
the year to assist those wanting
hands-on experience with thermal
imaging camera technology.
Before
& After StudiesThe program consists of informative, interactive sessions, with an immersion into the practical and beneficial use of infrared camera technology.  History The value of assessing thermal emissions from the body dates back to the ancient Egyptians with their ability to assess the physiological condition by moving their hands over an area. Hippocrates placed mud-soaked rags across the thorax. Where they dried first was an indicator of disease for him. Modern physicians have benefited from the discovery of infrared, along with the advances in temperature measurement, optics, electronics and software. Thermal images taken before and after provide an excellent visual testimonial for all types of therapies and products. See the dynamic benefits of many different health programs. Observe the efficacy of treatment programs. See the hottest and coldest areas, as a result of changes in thermal emissions from increased or decreased blood flow. It's an objective, non-invasive and independent view of a particular therapy, and helps with clinical direction.  Accessories A full range of supporting products assist the set-up of a thermal imaging lab or center. Environmental temperature and humidity loggers, camera stands and performance software contribute to organizing an appropriate facility. White paper on thermal imaging for health care use |
