In vivo skin thermophysical property testing technology using flexible thermosensor-based 3.

Thermophysical properties of human skin surface and subsurface can reflect the hydration state of the skin and the blood flow rate in the near surface microvessels, which reveals important physiological information related to dermatology and overall health status of human body. Although a few techniques have been developed to measure these signs, complicated devices are required and the subjects need to be completely fixed during the test period. Here, a flexible thermosensor-based 3 technology was used to monitor thermal conductivity of human skins at different states. Through the analysis of these characteristics, the corresponding physiological state can be established, which can provide a new detection method for the evaluation or prediction of human health status.
