title: Liquid crystal thermography: a measure of therapeutic response to reserpine given intra-arterially.
abstract: Twelve patients with Raynaud's phenomenon secondary to acrosclerosis and/or systemic sclerosis were evaluated before and after intra-arterial administration of reserpine. The irridescent color changes seen with these liquid crystals support recent evidence for short-term effectiveness of reserpine given intra-arterially.
