Abstract

Human body has its basal temperature that can be exploited for different uses. Obviously, thermal properties of human tissues allow to retrieve specific characteristics if special attention is paid. Therefore, thermal imaging is a suitable tool for many applications. It could be used in medical issues for checking temperature variations displayed by a volume under investigation during surgery operations related to humans. It plays a double role: imaging and temperature measurements. This paper presents a wide and joint experimental research for determining the decreasing temperature encompassed in a volume during an urological intervention in order to established, in a realtime, which tissues and adherences must be taken in consideration for continuing and optimizing the surgery process. A further processing is performed using Hough transform that exhibits encouraging results for this specific approach. This is very important for some other applications like contour extraction, contour matching and surface spline fitting.
