Medical Thermal Image Processor

A Physiological View of the Body
 

 

 

Temperature is the most common measure of patient health used in modern medicine. It is widely accepted that temperatures deviating from normal are associated with an ailment or injury.

The Thermal Image Processor™ (TIP™) from Computerized Thermal Imaging™ (CTI) accurately and objectively measures these temperature changes providing an invaluable adjunctive tool to aid diagnosis and improve patient care.

The system provides medical professionals a physiological view of the body, verses the anatomical view produced by other imaging modalities, such as x-ray and MRI. The Thermal Image Processor is completely passive; it does not rely on ionizing radiation to capture an image. Because there are no radiation risks associated with acquiring images, the Thermal Image Processor may be used as often as necessary to document patient progress.

The Thermal Image Processor uses radiated heat as an indicator of the physiological activity of the body. The system uses an infrared camera to capture images, sending the data to a workstation for display, analysis (using advanced image analysis software), and storage. The FDA has cleared the use of this system for adjunctive medical imaging.

The Thermal Image Processor leverages one of the most sensitive radiometric infrared cameras commercially available to capture the most accurate patient data. The Thermal Image Processor is simple to configure, allowing quick and easy patient imaging.

An Important New View of the Body
The TIP System uses the latest technologies assisting facilities and doctors throughout the United States, Canada, and Asia everyday to see health issues in a whole new light.  It,
  • Allows medical staff to identify soft tissue injuries that do not show up in other imaging modalities
  • Produces visual documentation as adjunct to diagnosis and treatment plans
  • Provides patient with visual feedback on treatment progress
  • The radiometric infrared camera has been cleared for adjunctive medical imaging by the FDA
  • Enables training staff to administer therapy more accurately
