Assessing the Health and Functionality of the Microcirculation Using Thermal Imaging

Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
We review the techniques of thermal imaging for assessing the functional consequences of lowered blood flow in the microcirculation that accompanies many chronic, inflammatory diseases. A comparison is made with laser Doppler/speckle methods. ABSTRACT The microcirculation, composed of vessels below 100 μm in diameter, sustains tissue perfusion and ...
