Thermography and thermoregulation of the face [PDF]

open access: yesHead & Face Medicine, 2007
Although clinical diagnosis of thermoregulation is gaining in importance there is no consistent evidence on the value of thermography of the facial region. In particular there are no reference values established with standardised methods.Skin temperatures were measured in the facial area at 32 fixed measuring sites in 26 health subjects (7-72 years ...
