No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Dynamic infrared thermography (DIRT) is an imaging method that does not require ionizing radiation or contrast injection. The study evaluates if DIRT can be an alternative to computed tomographic angiography (CTA) in perforator mapping. DIRT findings are compared with hand-held Doppler, CTA and intraoperative findings.
