title: [Functional radiothermometry in the diagnosis of the autonomic dystonia syndrome].
abstract: The purpose of the study was to examine potentialities of functional radiothermometry in the diagnosis of a syndrome of vegetodystonia. 56 patients with vegetodystonia and 31 practically healthy subjects were examined. All the test subjects underwent the thermal radiothermometry test with the heating of the right hand and forearm in water bath at a temperature of 45-46 degrees C for 5 min and simultaneous recording of the temperature of the fingers of the intact hand. Analysis of the results demonstrated the predominance of manifest positive and negative temperature reactions in patients with vegetodystonia. In this patients' group, anxiety and hypochondria were encountered less frequently than in persons with moderate temperature deviations. Introduction of radiothermometry and psychological methods of examination allow planning the treatment in accordance with the signs of vascular and psychoemotional disadaptation.
