The evaluation by contact-thermography (with heat sensitive cholesterinester crystals) of patch tests for contact dermatitis is an important aid to detect weak positive or false negative reactions. In addition, it facilitates the interpretation of patch tests in dark skin persons. The number of diagnosed cases of contact dermatitis can be increased by about 10% without increasing the expenditure of time on the part of the patient or the physician.
通过接触热成像法（使用热敏胆固醇酯晶体）对接触性皮炎斑贴试验进行评估，对于检测弱阳性或假阴性反应是一项重要的辅助手段。此外，它有助于对深色皮肤人群的斑贴试验结果进行解读。在不增加患者或医生时间成本的情况下，接触性皮炎的确诊病例数可增加约10%。
