PY - 2020 DA - 2020/05/14 TI - Medical infrared thermal imaging of syringomyelia in the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel JO - BMC Veterinary Research SP - 137 VL - 16 IS - 1 AB - Medical infrared thermal imaging (MITI) is a non-invasive imaging modality gaining popularity in the veterinary field. An infrared camera captures emission of heat and creates a color map in the form of a thermogram. Topical heat emission is influenced by localized disease processes as a result of autonomic nervous system imbalance. The purpose of this study was to determine the utility of using thermography to identify changes in thermographic patterns associated with syringomyelia (SM) presence or absence in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCS) with Chiari-like Malformation (CLM).
