In biomedicine, infrared thermography is the most promising technique among other conventional methods for revealing the differences in skin temperature, resulting from the irregular temperature dispersion, which is the significant signaling of diseases and disorders in human body. Given the process of detecting emitted thermal radiation of human body temperature by infrared imaging, we, in this study, present the current utility of thermal camera models namely FLIR and SEEK in biomedical applications as an extension of our previous article.
The most significant result is the differences between image qualities of the thermograms captured by thermal camera models. In other words, the image quality of the thermal images in FLIR One is higher than SEEK Compact PRO. However, the thermal images of FLIR One are noisier than SEEK Compact PRO since the thermal resolution of FLIR One is 160 × 120 while it is 320 × 240 in SEEK Compact PRO.
Detecting and revealing the inhomogeneous temperature distribution on the injured toe of the subject, we, in this paper, analyzed the imaging results of two different smartphone-based thermal camera models by making comparison among various thermograms. Utilizing the feasibility of the proposed method for faster and comparative diagnosis in biomedical problems is the main contribution of this study.
在生物医学领域，与其他传统方法相比，红外热成像技术是揭示皮肤温度差异的最有前途的技术，这种差异是人体疾病和异常的重要信号。鉴于通过红外成象检测人体温度发出的热辐射的过程，我们在本研究中扩展了我们之前的文章，介绍了当前热成像模型（FLIR 和 SEEK）在生物医学应用中的实用情况。
最显著的结果是两种热成像模型所捕获的热图的图像质量之间的差异。换句话说，FLIR One 拍摄的热图像质量高于 SEEK Compact PRO。然而，FLIR One 的热图像比 SEEK Compact PRO 噪声更大，因为 FLIR One 的热分辨率为 160×120，而 SEEK Compact PRO 的热分辨率为 320×240。
通过对两种不同的基于智能手机的热成像模型的成像结果进行比较，我们在本文中分析了受检者受伤脚趾的不均匀温度分布。利用该方法在生物医学问题中进行更快和比较性诊断的可行性是本研究的主要贡献。
