Thermal
Imaging of Expectant Mother Images produced by Teletherm camera |
One of the advantages for using this non-invasive technology. The thermal image at the left was taken in the early days of electronic telethermography, circa 1987, with one of the first fully digital infrared camera systems, the Teletherm Mark/1026. Thermal emissions from an expectant mother appear. |

1996 Original research has been presented on the "Application of Telethermography in the Evaluation of Preterm Premature Rupture of the Fetal Membranes" Telethermography
has the potential of being a sensitive
clinical indicator of early chorioamniotic
infection. Diagnosing
this infection antenatally in its early
stage may facilitate early delivery and
prevention of infection. Michael

Unit, Ann Arbor, Michigan. (The
above clinic used mid-90's version of
Teletherm infrared camera - to date, no
other infrared camera manufacturer has
produced similar results). |
