title: [Value of tele-thermographic studies in the diagnosis of head and neck diseases].
abstract: The tele-thermographic examinations are of non-invasive character, they can be repeated any time and may be applied also for check-up examinations. The fact that they are evaluated together with other completing clinical examinations (X-ray, scintigraphy, ultrasonography, biopsy etc.) gives the objective significance and value of the examination. According to the author's observation the tele-thermography provides important help in the diagnostics of cervico-facial tumors, in the demonstration of metastases before the operation and detection of postoperative recurrences, in the follow-up of the patient's condition at the period of irradiation- or cytostatic therapy gives exact information in dermatology on the biological activity and extent of malignant melanoma. The treatment of persons with burn- or frostbite injuries requires it equally and good information may be obtained by its use on the condition of blood circulation in cases of vascular obstruction and vascular anomalies.
