We develop a 3D thermography imaging standardization technique to allow quantitative data analysis. Medical Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging is very sensitive and reliable mean of graphically mapping and display skin surface temperature. It allows doctors to visualise in colour and quantify temperature changes in skin surface. The spectrum of colours indicates both hot and cold responses which ...

Breast cancer is the commonly found cancer in women. Studies show that the detection at the earliest can bring down the mortality rate. Infrared Breast thermography uses the temperature changes in breast to arrive at diagnosis. Due to increased cell activity, the tumor and the surrounding areas has higher temperature emitting higher infrared radiations. These radiations are captured by thermal ...

An increase in reactive power consumption results an electricity costs. This negative phenomenon can be prevented by using compensation methods. One of them is the installation capacitors. These capacitors are exposed to external conditions, such as temperature and humidity. As a consequence, aging process occurs. Another corrosion that occurs inside capacitor result moisture absorption. this p...

Thermography of the breast has been shown to be well suited to detect early signs of breast cancer. This study proposes a novel method for boundary detection of breast thermography images using directional SUSAN method. Among breast thermography image processing steps, breast isolation from background and from each other is an essential stage for proper detection of breast cancer. For this purp...

An infrared thermogram which reflects the human body surface temperature distribution can be obtained through detecting the infrared thermal radiation from each point on the human body surface. When a malignant tumor occurs in a breast, it will cause an increase in the prominent temperature in the breast surface focus region due to the abnormal blood transmission state of local focus tissue. Br...

Preliminary assessment of clinically suspected deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower limb by thermography avoids the need for over one third of venograms or duplex Doppler ultrasound scans. Clinical diagnosis of DVT is notoriously unreliable hence the need for an accurate means of clinical investigation. Untreated DVT is dangerous as it can progress to pulmonary embolism (PE) which is frequ...

BACKGROUND Celecoxib, a selective cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitor has been recommended orally for the treatment of arthritis and osteoarthritis. Long term oral administration of celecoxib produces serious gastrointestinal side effects. It is a highly lipophilic, poorly soluble drug with oral bioavailability of around 40% (Capsule). Therefore the aim of the present investigation was to assess the sk...
