title: [Thermography in assessing the microcirculation of patients with acute and chronic viral hepatitis].
abstract: The important role is emphasized of microcirculatory disorders in the pathogenesis of viral hepatitis and the necessity of their early diagnosis. For this purpose the method of infrared thermography of the upper extremities (hands) was used that allowed to reveal pronounced disorders of the peripheral hemodynamics in a significant number of patients with acute and chronic viral hepatitis, in particular, hepatitis B that promoted a more severe, progressive course of the disease. It is concluded that for instituting pathogenetically substantiated treatment, prognosis and prevention of unfavourable outcomes it is necessary to supplement clinico-laboratory data by instrumental examination of the terminal blood flow, in particular, thermography of the extremities.
