Abstract
Radiometer measurements show that the human body emits thermal signals at millimeter wavelengths which can produce a thermographic image potentially useful for detection of "hot spots." The spatial resolution which can be obtained at a frequency of 45 GHz is in the order of 1.3 cm, and the temperature resolution is 0.1 K.
