There are a variety of medical imaging modalities available, although each modality focus into different aspects, for example: anatomical, physiological or geometrical information. This paper presents a new imaging modality (3D THERMO-SCAN) that combines anatomical computer tomography (CT) imaging slices, together with 2D infrared thermography images and 3D scanned shaped models of the area under study. Therefore, it is presented the 3D reconstructions involving a case study of a volunteer with bruxism. Some characteristics of bruxism are the hyperactivity of the chewing muscles, which changes the dynamics of microcirculation, also changing the correspondent skin's temperature. The emphasis is to show the corresponding structures, such as jaw/mandibular region that will produce either decrease or increase in temperature, which are related to bruxism and the associated use of an occlusal splint, respectively.
有多种医学成像方式可供使用，尽管每种方式关注的是不同方面，例如：解剖学、生理学或几何学信息。本文介绍了一种新的成像方式（3D热扫描），它将解剖学计算机断层扫描（CT）成像切片与二维红外热成像图像以及所研究区域的三维扫描形状模型结合在一起。因此，展示了涉及一名磨牙症志愿者的案例研究的三维重建。磨牙症的一些特征是咀嚼肌的过度活动，这会改变微循环的动态，也会改变相应皮肤的温度。重点是展示相应的结构，如下颌/下颌区域，其温度会分别因磨牙症和使用咬合板而降低或升高。
