Thermographic Applications in Veterinary Medicine

Veterinary infrared thermography is a term indicating in vivo digitally imaging an animal with an infrared camera using computer interpretation of thermal maps. Various trials were performed with different species (horse, pig and cows)1,2,3,4,5 to assess the validity of thermographic instrument. Infrared thermographic systems are capable of seeing energy emitted by most objects at a temperature...
