 About Medical DITI Thermography or Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging...
Medical DITI is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that allows changes in skin surface temperature to be explored, looking for any abnormalities that could reflect internal medical problems. Medical DITI is a monitor of thermal abnormalities present in a number of diseases and physical injuries. It is used as:
- An aid for diagnosis and prognosis
- Therapy follow up and rehabilitation monitoring
- Defining the extent of a problem of which a diagnosis has previously been made
- Pinpointing the location on your body that is creating pain or discomfort
- Localising an abnormal area not previously identified, so further tests can be performed
- Detecting problems early on before they are clinically evident
- Monitoring your body’s status before you resume normal activity levels e.g. after surgery or illness
Results obtained with medical DITI systems are totally objective and show excellent correlation with other diagnostic tests.
Both hot and cold temperature responses may coexist if pain is associated with inflammation. Vascular conditions are readily demonstrated by DITI including Raynauds Disease, Vasculitis, Limb Ischemia, DVT, etc.
It is a very sensitive and reliable means of graphically mapping and displaying skin surface temperature. With DITI you can diagnosis, evaluate, monitor and document a large number of injuries and conditions, including soft tissue injuries and sensory/autonomic nerve fibre dysfunction.
Medical DITI can offer considerable financial savings by avoiding the need for more expensive investigation for many patients.
