8 Ethical Aspects in Thermal Imaging Research
8.1 Introduction
Infrared (IR) thermography is a non-invasive imaging method that measures mid-wave to long-wave IR radiation emanating from humans and converts them to temperature profiles which can be used for clinical research. Thermal imaging is done using infrared thermal cameras. They are mainly used to measure human body temperatures to find out the difference between them. They are also known as infrared thermographs or tele-thermographic system – it basically detects the infrared light emitted from a person’s skin, and then it is converted into a temperature distribution map of a specific region of the body. One of the main ethical concerns is that this tool ...
