TERMOGRAFIA E EXERCÍCIO
Infrared thermography is a non-invasive
technique that measures mid to long-wave
infrared radiation emanating from all
objects and converts this to temperature.

INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY AND SPORT MEDICINE
Athletes are exposed to great physical stress in training and during competition.
Overuse reactions are frequent; therefore, their early detection is important.
Furthermore, early detection and localization of inflammation are critical steps in
determining the appropriate treatment. Inflammation will usually cause a localized
increase in skin temperature, thereby disturbing the “normal” symmetry.
Nerve damage or disturbances to the autonomic nervous system may also cause a
change and may lead to a localized cooling of the affected area. Because this is a
remote sensing technique, it is possible to monitor body surface temperature during
and after movement and thereby detect changes in skin temperature caused by the
exercise or therapy.

Non-acute overuse injury of a 17-year-old football player (Non-
thermal stimuli)
He was diagnosed with a recurrent medial shin splint on his left leg
and was asymptomatic when the baseline images were taken (Figure
6a).
However, the area of referred pain on the left leg matches the area
of cooler skin along the tibiae. This problem became even more
visible following a sport-specific warm-up program, indicating a low
metabolic activity around the affected structures (Figure 6b).

The thermogram of a 26-year-old professional football player
represents a problem in the Achilles region (Non-thermal
stimuli)
This athlete reported a
feeling of morning stiffness
on the musculotendinous
junction on his left leg. The
thermograms showed a
side-to-side difference in
the affected area of 1.7° C.

The evaluation made with
thermography before the
performance of any physical
activity shows us that the
average body temperature is
around 35°C for head.
And both the upper and lower segments have more or less the
same average temperature, which is normal since there was no
performance of any physical activity that could lead to any change
in temperature by any of these segments.
PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES AND THERMOREGULATION
The main heat loss from the body during exercise occurs through sweating and
evaporation of sweat.
0.580 Kcal is lost with the evaporation of 1 g of sweat from the skin surface.
Pugh et al. stated that a marathon runner running in hot weather in England sweats
about 1800 cc per hour.
Costil et al. calculated that in the selection of the American marathon, the marathon
runner lost 6.1 kg of body weight and sweated 1.09 L per m² body surface per hour.

us a more balanced average
temperature of the EI1,EI2 and EI3
segments, with EI4 with an average to
low temperature compared to the
previous state and EI5 also with an
average temperature that comes
down. (-1 oC)
