The possibility of using the thermal imaging method to assess the level of blood flow in the course of building thermograms of the surface of the hands of healthy volunteers before and after the load on the muscles was studied in this paper. The results obtained using the thermal imaging method provide objective information about the degree of blood supply to the tissues, which opens up new perspectives for evaluating skin blood flow in the dynamics. The technique is absolutely safe, non-invasive, versatile and easy to perform.

Assessment of the optimum level of amputation of an ischaemic limb can be exceptionally difficult. For this reason there has been an intensive effort, particularly in the past 20 years, to find suitable non-invasive ancillary methods to aid in the amputation level selection. This paper reviews three separate research and development areas which have evolved simultaneously in our laboratory: skin partial oxygen pressure, skin blood flow, and infrared thermography. The physiological basis for each of these measurements is discussed along with the merits and demerits of each.
