DIAGNOSTIC OF MAXILLOFACIAL PATHOLOGY

Jovan Bojkovski, Dejan Durdevic

Abstract

This paper describes importance of use of modern temperature measuring equipment in diagnostic of maxillofacial pathology. Each change in the maxillofacial region of human body caused by tumour, inflammation or other disease typically causes small change in temperature on the skin of patient. In this paper, we will present preliminary study and suggest procedures how to detect these temperature changes with use of thermal imagining cameras.
