Thermographic imaging of myofascial trigger points: a follow-up study.

摘要: Abstract Thermographic evaluation was performed on 11 adult volunteers with myofascial trigger points and asymptomatic controls. Infrared thermography used to obtain a series of images compare the sensory referral areas their thermal patterns. A then taken at, distal to, area each point during quantitative compression point, dynamic temperature changes were monitored. Asymmetric patterns observed at all in referred before compression. The showed reduction from precompression levels When similar but compressed, no significant noted sites.
