The use of infrared thermography in the measurement and ...
2018年1月29日 · IRT offers a complementary detection method for BAT activity and can overcome some of the drawbacks of PET/CT. The non-invasive nature of thermal imaging and its avoidance of ionizing radiation make it highly suitable for BAT measurements in healthy cohorts or children and young people.
Local hyperthermia therapy induces browning of white fat and treats obesity
2022年3月17日 · In this study, we discovered that local hyperthermia therapy (LHT) targeting beige fat promoted its activation in humans and mice. LHT achieved using a hydrogel-based photothermal therapy activated beige fat, preventing and treating obesity in …
A standardized infrared imaging technique that specifically …
2014年7月1日 · We present a novel method to measure BAT thermogenesis using infrared imaging following β 3-adrenoreceptor stimulation in mice. We show that the increased body surface temperature observed using this method is due solely to uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1)-mediated thermogenesis and that this technique is able to discern differences in BAT activity ...
Adipocyte-targeted delivery of rosiglitazone with localized ...
2024年6月1日 · Anti-obesity medications currently available have limited efficacy in weight loss and are often accompanied by adverse effects. This study proposes a localized photothermal therapy (PTT) combined with adipocyte-targeted delivery …
Infrared thermography in the detection of brown adipose tissue in ...
This study investigated the usefulness of IRT as a tool for detecting BAT in humans by validating thermal imaging to that of positive PET‐CT imaging. During controlled cold stimulation in an air‐conditioned room, the mean skin temperature over the SCV fossa tended to be higher in the BAT‐positive group.
Impact of Adaptive Thermogenesis in Mice on the Treatment of Obesity
2020年1月28日 · Mice studies performed in chronic cold or thermoneutral conditions allow us to better understand underlying physiological mechanisms for successful, reproducible translation into humans in the fight against obesity and metabolic diseases.
Thermal Imaging of Abdomen in Evaluation of Obesity: A
2019年1月2日 · In this study, BCA parameters correlated significantly with the skin surface temperature measured at forearm and abdomen region in obese subjects. Obesity refers to abnormal fat accumulation in the body, which leads to impairment to the health [1].
An Improved Thermogram Dataset for Obesity Detection Research
2023年12月1日 · In this article, we improved our previous dataset and present an open-access obesity thermogram dataset that supports the development of obesity detection systems. We describe the thermal image acquisition procedures, participant selection, room protocol configuration, and thermal camera setups.
Thermal imaging method in the evaluation of obesity in various …
Thermal imaging of abdominal, shank, gluteal, forearm, neck and fingerbed regions was acquired and average skin temperature was estimated in various regions for obese and normal subjects. Among the six region studied, neck region shows the greater temperature variation between the study population.
Computer aided diagnosis of obesity based on thermal imaging …
2021年1月1日 · Thermal imaging of human body for quantification of adipose tissue for obesity detection is an actively researched topic. Non-invasive and simple experimental setup of thermal imaging procedure has motivated researchers to use this technique for obesity detection.
