Characteristics of the thermal relief of the human body are reviewed. It is shown that the usage of thermovision in medical diagnostics requires the simultaneous and compatible consideration in the research process of three components: the contribution of the object itself, the influence of the medium through which the infrared radiation passes and the instrumental parameters of the infrared imager registering this radiation.

Measurements of temperature in suspension of rat liver mitochondria were registered by thermovisor. Temperature increase per 1 K was observed under succinate oxidation in state 4 which is considerably higher than that under oxidation of pyruvate and malate. Uncoupling of succinate oxidation produced an additional temperature increase.

The method permits investigation into the dynamics of temperature field in the nervous tissue directly. In the transplants with synchronous spontaneous activity of large neuron groups there were found zones of high thermoactivity with mean amplitude 0.
