[Thermography in diagnosis and treatment efficacy evaluation of lower limbs arterial diseases].

Possibilities of thermography for diagnosis of lower limbs arterial diseases and evaluation of treatment results were analyzed. Quantitative evaluation of infra-red imaging with detection of mean temperature, area of thermo-profile and thermographic index is proposed. Possibility of this method for detection of microcirculatory disorders in the limbs before clinical manifestation is demonstrated.
