Twelve cases of primative bone neoplasm and of soft tissues sarcomas have been thermographycally observed. All cases were positive and cutaneous hyper-thermic areas corresponding to the neoplasies under consideration were noticed. This hyper-thermic area was in all cases larger than the area of bone's disease radiographycally detectable. Five cases were controlled before during and after a conservative radio-chemotherapic treatment. Thermographic and clinic finding's variation were always according; precocious than radiography. The results are to emphasize the utility of thermography in the prognosis, in the diagnosis of neoplastic extension, in conservative treatment control and in the follow-up of treated patients.
对12例原发性骨肿瘤和软组织肉瘤进行了热像图观察。所有病例均为阳性，发现了与所考虑的肿瘤相对应的皮肤高温区。在所有病例中，该高温区均大于X线可检测到的骨病区域。对5例患者在保守放化疗治疗前、治疗期间和治疗后进行了对照。热像图和临床检查结果的变化始终一致，比X线检查更早出现变化。结果强调了热像图在预后评估、肿瘤扩展诊断、保守治疗监测以及治疗后患者随访中的实用性。
