thermography

thermography
Danh từ

This term describes a specialized imaging process that translates temperature variations into visual maps. It is used across diverse fields, from industrial engineering to medicine, to detect anomalies that are invisible to the naked eye, such as electrical faults or biological inflammation.

In a medical context, it is often framed as a complementary or screening tool rather than a primary diagnostic method. Because it measures surface heat rather than internal structure, it is frequently contrasted with modalities like mammography or MRI.

Ý nghĩa

Danh từthermography
