The Biothermometry for Skin Surface by Using Infrared Rays and Fluctuation Phenomena : The Influence of Heating Load and Cooling Load

Abstract

As the infrared thermography has a feature that we can diagnose two-dimensional temperature fields nondestructively and simultaneously at every picture element, it has widely been applied to various engineering and medical applications. Therefore, in this paper, a living body was diagnosed by sensing energy emitted from it quantitatively as electromagnetic waves using the infrared thermography. The unsteady fluctuation phenomenon was estimated by analyzing the temperature data statistically or by using the spectrum analysis method. The fluctuation phenomenon representing 1/f fluctuation is mainly focused on linking to human's mind throughout all the study.
