Abstract :
To provide an atlas and database for the temperature distribution of the skin in normal human subjects aged from 10 years to 75 years. The technique used in digital infrared thermal imaging which has been in use since 1960. Despite, many different applications and published studies, a normal database is not available. It is particularly needed for forensic and hospital clinic use.
