Thermography was performed before ascending phlebography in a series of 232 patients with suggested deep venous thrombosis. Thirty per cent of the patients were thermo-negative. The predictive value of a negative thermography was 88 per cent. Thermography is useful as a screening method, but it has low specificity and thus a relatively high incidence of false positives must be accepted.
在232例疑似深静脉血栓形成的患者中，在进行上行静脉造影之前先进行了热成像检查。30%的患者热成像结果为阴性。热成像阴性的预测价值为88%。热成像作为一种筛查方法是有用的，但它的特异性较低，因此必须接受相对较高的假阳性发生率。
