Resumen : | Thermography is a technique that allows visualizing and accurately measuring the temperature of bodies, without the need of physical
contact since it captures infrared radiation they
emit. Medically, it allows registering the cold
and hot areas of a patient’s body thanks to the
energy radiated by their skin, with a precision
that can reach up to one hundredth of a degree
centigrade [1] (Fig. 30.1). Since its invention, photography has played a critical role in the practice of medicine, especially for visual specialties such as dermatology. It serves as a means of precise documentation of disease or procedures as well as a method of communication and a vital educational tool. The detailed information contained within Photography in Clinical Medicine successfully counters the lament that health care professionals no longer possess the necessary skills required for high-quality medical photography. In addition to providing a frm foundation in basic principles of photography and attendant key equipment, there is a series of specifc chapters that contain both theoretical and practical insights into a wide range of topics from 3D imaging to digital dermoscopy. Another useful aspect of this book is its attention to multiple medical specialties, including ophthalmology and gastroenterology, as well as dentistry and veterinary medicine. There are also relevant discussions of more modern issues such as HIPAA compliance and interfacing with digital platforms including social media. In summary, acquiring the knowledge contained within this book will lead to a quantum leap in photographic skills and expertise. Foreword 2 Jean L.
