Thermography in Veterinary Medicine
Efficient and flexible veterinary medical analyses with infrared camera systems
- Body temperature indicates diseases to be diagnosed
- Thermography is able to identify various disease patterns
- Only resolutions of smallest temperature differences sufficiently show problem areas
Details about veterinary medicine
Various disease patterns are detectable by means of thermography
Medical examinations of animals can be carried out in an efficient way by applying infrared camera systems. Animal’s body temperature can indicate multiple health problems. These may affect the animal itself, as for instance diseases of the udder or hoof, or they result from animal husbandry, as it is in the case of an incorrect application of saddles causing pressure points and, following, local overheating on horses. Inflammations and lameness are further problems which can be detected with the help of thermography.
Infrared camera’s compactness and small size allows its flexible application
In particular, the application of thermal camera systems is of interest due to their high mobility and – in contrast to many other procedures of veterinary medical engineering – can, therefore, be taken into stables. InfraTec’s camera series VarioCAM ® hr inspect impresses especially with their small size and low weight. Moreover, thermography is a non-contact measurement process which ensures that animals are not unnecessarily provoked.
Reliable diagnoses only with excellent thermal resolutions of infrared camera systems
Minimal differences of an animal’s body temperature can be an indicator for disease patterns. Thus, applied thermal camera systems must detect smallest temperature differences requiring excellent thermal resolutions. InfraTec provides with its VarioCAM ® high resolution series highest thermal resolutions and minimal differences in degrees Celsius (hundredth of a degree) in the uncooled infrared camera segment.

Case study
Thermography in Biology
Bats are important in the ecosystems, and can provide valuable services to humans such as reducing the numbers of insect pests at night. But the consequences of human population expansion have caused significant reductions in the populations of many bat species over the past hundred years. In order to protect bat populations firstly their ecology has to be understood but it can be very difficult to study the small, nocturnal mammals in the wild. Infrared thermography offers solutions to many of the problems faced by bat ecologists.
