Infrared functional imaging applied to Raynaud's phenomenon.

Presents an approach that allows simultaneous assessment of thermal properties of multiple fingers on both hands. It is a novel approach to the estimation of Raynaud's phenomenon based on infrared functional imaging assessments. Q, which represents the total amount of stored heat by the finger...
