The use of thermal imaging in monitoring the dynamic of skin temperature during prolonged physical exercise is central to assess athletes' ability to dissipate heat from the skin surface to the environment. In this study, seven elite cyclists completed an incremental maximal cycling test to evaluate their skin temperature response under controlled-environment conditions. Thermal images have been analyzed using a method based on maxima detection (T). Data confirmed a reduction in skin temperature due to vasoconstriction during the exercise, followed by a temperature increment after exhaustion. A characteristic hot-spotted thermal pattern was found over the skin surface in all subjects. This research confirmed also the notable ability by highly trained cyclists to modify skin temperature during an incremental muscular effort. This study gives additional contributions for understanding the capability of the T method applied to the thermoregulatory physiological processes.
在长时间体育锻炼过程中，利用热成像监测皮肤温度动态对于评估运动员将皮肤表面热量散发到环境中的能力至关重要。在本研究中，七名精英自行车运动员完成了递增式最大骑行测试，以评估他们在可控环境条件下的皮肤温度反应。已使用基于最大值检测（T）的方法对热图像进行了分析。数据证实，运动期间由于血管收缩皮肤温度降低，运动结束后温度升高。在所有受试者的皮肤表面均发现了特征性的热点热模式。该研究还证实了训练有素的自行车运动员在递增肌肉运动期间显著改变皮肤温度的能力。这项研究为理解应用于体温调节生理过程的T方法的能力提供了更多贡献。
