[Use of color thermography for diagnosis of thyroid diseases]primenie tsvetnoĭ termografii dlia diagnostiki zabolveaniĭ shchitovidnoĭ zhelezy.
121 patients with different affections of the thyroid were examined by the method of color thermography. In patients with signs of hyperthyroidism or inflammation of the thyroid a local skin hyperthermia of the anterior jugular surface was observed. In the presence of euthyroid or hypothyroid struma skin temperature changes are either entirely absent, or there is a moderately pronounced local hypothermia. Cancer of the thyroid, as a rule, causes a more pronounced local skin hypothermia on the anterior jugular aspect.
