THERMAL IMAGING FOR MEDICAL APPLICATIONS

Medical Thermal Image 1

Medical thermal imaging (MII) is becoming a common screening modality in the areas of neuromusculoskeletal injury, cancer, and circulatory pathology. As a physiological imaging modality that assesses body function, it can indicate developing disease states, and breast cancer, earlier than anatomical examinations. It is highly accurate and 100% safe, involving no radiation or contact.
MII is helpful for chronic pain, disease processes, and monitoring treatment effectiveness on physiology. MII can also help to identify sources of pain, particularly those involving the neuromuscular and circulatory systems. And because every organ reflects itself on the skin surface, organ stress/compromise can be monitored. If disease processes are present, a thermal imager may detect them before symptoms become apparent, enabling early intervention and proactive treatment.
The FDA approved the technology for adjunctive breast cancer screening in 1982, and it has been recognized as a viable diagnostic tool since 1987 by the AMA council on Scientific Affairs, the ACA Council on Diagnostic Imaging and the Congress of Neuro-Surgeons since 1988, and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation since 1990. Research indicates that it is extremely effective in diagnosing most types of back, neck, and limb pain, especially latent or intractable types of pain syndromes. MORE...

THERMAL IMAGING FOR FIREFIGHTING / MANAGEMENT APPLICATIONS

Fire control and management; whether for natural resource fires, crash fires, or urban building fires, fire control presents many challenges to those who are fighting fires and managing the fight. Infrared technology is being increasingly recognized as essential in timely fire rescue operations where lives are at stake. ICI infrared cameras are a "natural" fire fighters tool in the effort to gain this valuable real-time tactical information. Since it is a technology designed to sense and display heat signatures, the cameras provides “sight” in dark and smoke filled environments, which is invaluable in the decision making process. Infrared thermal imaging systems are being integrated into fire control, management and firefighting services throughout the world. Infrared Cameras, Inc. offers solutions that meet and exceed the operational needs of these applications.
