Infrared imaging has been used to visualize superficial temperatures in industrial employers standing and working in an indoor environment at 22°C. Temperature distributions and changes have been recorded digitally and analyzed. Mean skin temperatures determined by this method have been compared with superficial temperatures obtained with a probe thermocouple. During working hours, surface temperatures were higher over extensor muscles than over other structures and their spatial distributions differed dramatically from those observed before working hours. The authors also analyzed the cold water immersion of the hands during work. This paper showed that working generates different thermal effects on human skin that reflect physiological and pathological occupational conditions and can be monitored by infrared imaging.
红外成像已被用于观察在22°C室内环境中站立工作的产业工人的体表温度。温度分布和变化已被数字化记录并分析。通过这种方法确定的平均皮肤温度已与用探针热电偶获得的体表温度进行了比较。在工作时间内，伸肌表面的温度高于其他结构，其空间分布与工作前观察到的情况有很大不同。作者还分析了工作期间手部的冷水浸泡情况。本文表明，工作会对人体皮肤产生不同的热效应，这些效应反映了生理和病理职业状况，并且可以通过红外成像进行监测。
