Infrared thermography systems capture heat patterns on the skin using infrared imaging to create visual representations of body surface temperature. Clinically, they help detect abnormalities like inflammation, vascular disorders, or soft tissue injuries by identifying temperature variations linked to underlying conditions.
These systems are typically regulated as medical devices based on their intended use, often requiring compliance with imaging device standards. They may be supplied as standalone units or integrated with software for analysis, with classification varying by jurisdiction depending on diagnostic claims and risk factors.
