- Diagnostic technique using a thermograph to record the heat produced by different parts of the body; used to study blood flow and to detect tumors
- (thermogram) a graphical record produced by a thermograph
- Infrared thermography, thermal imaging, and thermal video, are examples of infrared imaging science. Thermal imaging cameras detect radiation in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum (roughly 900-14,000 nanometers or 0. ...
- (Thermogram) An image of an object taken with an infrared camera that shows surface temperature variations.
- This procedure measures the temperature on the skin surface to locate inflammation of muscles and soft tissues. A special camera takes pictures, which reflect the different temperatures by displaying a range of colors on film. Thermography has been used to pinpoint spinal nerve and muscle stress.
- A printing process whereby slow drying ink is applied to paper and while the ink is still wet, it is lightly dusted with a resinous powder. The paper then passes through a heat chamber where the powder melts and fuses with the ink to produce a raised surface.
- A building energy diagnostic technique using an infrared camera for locating areas of temperature differential in a building.
- Method of printing using colorless resin powder that takes on the color of underlying ink. Also called raised printing.
- The presentation and interpretation of two-dimensional temperature pictures.
