Abstract

Infrared thermography (IRT), also known as thermal imaging, has emerged as a non-invasive, real-time technique for detecting and visualizing temperature variations across surfaces. This review highlights the principles of IRT, its technological advancements, and its diverse applications in both diagnostic and industrial domains. In healthcare, IRT is utilized for early disease detection, monitoring physiological changes, and assessing therapeutic outcomes. In industry, it enables predictive maintenance, quality control, and process monitoring. The integration of advanced sensors, image processing algorithms, and machine learning has significantly enhanced the accuracy and reliability of thermal imaging systems. This paper systematically discusses recent research, challenges, and future directions of IRT, emphasizing its growing relevance as a versatile tool in scientific and industrial settings.

Keywords
