Abstract
Thermal imaging has been widely used in recent years in various fields of clinical medicine. It allows obtaining an image created by the body's own thermal radiation. According to the size and intensity of this radiation it is possible to judge about pathological processes taking place in internal organs. Diagnostic value of thermal imaging in diseases of large intestine was studied by many researchers. In spite of difficulties of thermogram interpretation not only at various pathological processes, but also at healthy people, this method finds more and more wide application in diagnostics of inflammatory processes of abdominal cavity organs. Its advantage over other methods of investigation of large intestine is the possibility to determine the state of the intestine along its whole length. Besides, all authors note visibility, harmlessness of the method and quickness of obtaining information.
