Description:
The research subject coresponds to exploring and valuing a border field, as well fundamental as aplicative research. Medical thermography represents an investigation area. In a continuous development wich reveals complex biological phenomenons and poins new research engaging issues. The results of therapeutical effects as well conservative as surgical are argumented through termovision studies. The thermography develops and amplifies the knowledge area by opening new research directions in the context of new investigation methods as echografie, computerised tomography, magnetic nuclear resonance.
