Thermographic assessment of synovial haemangioma.

This technique disclosed extensive subcutaneous distribution of haemangiomata which had been unsuspected clinically. Localised and diffuse lesions can be differentiated by this method. This information is important in planning surgery and in assessment of prognosis.
