Infrared photography, known to be useful in the study of cutaneous vascular structures but not yet extensively explored in the investigation of skin diseases, was used to study lesions of Kaposi's sarcoma in three patients. In all photographs, the tumors appeared as a stain which was lighter in color than the normal skin. In two patients, the infrared photographs showed a tumor identical with that seen clinically. In the third patient, the tumor showed a larger extension than it seemed to have on physical examination. We believe that this technique can be of value in establishing the presence of such tumors and evaluating their actual size.
红外摄影，已知在皮肤血管结构研究中有用，但在皮肤病调查中尚未得到广泛探索，被用于研究三名患者的卡波西肉瘤病变。在所有照片中，肿瘤呈现为一种比正常皮肤颜色浅的污渍。在两名患者中，红外照片显示的肿瘤与临床所见相同。在第三名患者中，肿瘤显示出比体格检查时看起来更大的范围。我们认为，这项技术在确定此类肿瘤的存在及其实际大小方面可能具有价值。
