Radiothermometric control of metabolism in the muscles and tissues after IR-exposure in conservative treatment of spine diseases

The present work deals with dynamic control of sauna application, particularly IR-radiation in the process of sanatorium-resort treatment of the spine. Control was carried out by means of radiothermometer. Luminance temperature in muscle tissues of lower limbs was measured. Research was carried out at average temperature of 80/spl deg/C, that corresponds to the wavelength of /spl lambda/=8 micrometers. The control of metabolism in tissues and muscles of the patients, taking conservative treatment of spine diseases was carded out using UFH radiothermometry method.
