Journal ArticleDOI
The historical development of thermometry and thermal imaging in medicine
TL;DR: Thermal imaging has broadened the understanding of body surface temperature in health and disease and Standards for computer-assisted infrared imaging are well developed, and present-day fast high-resolution imaging is less expensive and more reliable than it was 40 years ago.
Journal ArticleDOI
New standards for devices used for the measurement of human body temperature
TL;DR: Important new standards that have now reached international acceptance will affect clinical and fever screening applications and are designed to improve the standardization of both performance and practical use of these key techniques in clinical medicine, especially necessary in a pandemic influenza situation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in the measurement of human body temperature
TL;DR: The development of temperature measurement is traced including the author's own experience of using thermal imaging in modern rheumatology and pharmacology including the advent of computer image processing first developed by the author for this application in 1970.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal bone mineral density changes in early rheumatoid arthritis
TL;DR: It is suggested that significant bone loss occurs within the first few months of disease in patients with RA, with significant differences found between RA patients and controls overall.
Journal ArticleDOI
The historical development of thermal imaging in medicine.
TL;DR: The association between disease and human body temperature is as old as medicine itself, and temperature measurements were used as a means of monitoring intra-articular steroid therapy by a number of authors but were invasive, unlike the infrared remote sensing techniques, which were available from the late 1950s.
