title: Use of thermal imaging to monitor crural thrombolysis.
abstract: Intra-arterial thrombolysis is increasingly being used as the treatment of choice in selected cases of critical limb ischaemia. At present angiography is the established method of monitoring the progress of thrombolysis. We report a case in which thermal imaging was used in conjunction with angiography to monitor the effects of thrombolysis.
