introduction: one of the minimally invasive methods of treatmenting liver malignancies is radiofrequency ablation (rfa) which can be applied to primary or secondary tumors. nevertheless, the disease recurrence is probable after rfa application partially due to the inadequate capability of temperature monitoring of the target tissue and visualizing the thermal damage. the goal of this work was t...

introduction: tracking temporal changes of temperature during laser skin treatment plays an important role in improving the process of laser skin treatment itself. there are a number of methods to analyze temperature’s temporal dependency during laser skin treatment; some of those methods depend on imaging the skin with thermal cameras. however, the use of thermal cameras exhibits specific prob...

due to the hard climatic conditions of the yardang region in the lut desert, not much information about land surface temperatures of this region, one of the extremely arid cli-matic zones of iran, has been extracted. therefore, in this study in order to obtain some information about important surface features of the lut desert (marl, grey sand, bright sand and salt affected land), field tempera...

Thermal image is an image that shows the thermal or temperature properties of an object. Thermal image of an object is obtained from a thermal infrared camera. This camera works by employing radiative heat transfer principles and uses sensors to capture the radiated energy of an object. Thermal image of an object in the real world which is captured by a thermal camera is a real thermal image of...

the research used the satellite image (landsat 7 etm ) within the thermal infrared sixth band (tir6) and geographic information system (gis) to determine the air pollution and its relationship with the land cover (lc) and land use (lu) of baghdad city. concentration of total suspended particles (tsp), lead (pb), carbon oxides (co, co2), and sulphur dioxide (so2) were obtained from 22 ground mea...

farming organic vegetable and crops have grown as a market desiring commodity. weed control in farms has been costly and laborous and it has always been hard to achieve a proper weeding. a few chemicals are commonly applied in organic farming. thermal weeding with flame burners seems a good solution; however, it has its own drawbacks, such as; damaging the main crops, low performance, being inf...

With the development of intelligent surveillance systems, the need for accurate detection of pedestrians by cameras has increased. However, most of the previous studies use a single camera system, either a visible light or thermal camera, and their performances are affected by various factors such as shadow, illumination change, occlusion, and higher background temperatures. To overcome these p...
