FLIR vs SEEK thermal cameras in biomedicine: comparative diagnosis through infrared thermography
Background: In biomedicine, infrared thermography is the most promising technique among other conventional
methods for revealing the differences in skin temperature, resulting from the irregular temperature dispersion,
which is the significant signaling of diseases and disorders in human body. Given the process of detecting emitted
thermal radiation of human body temperature by infrared imaging, we, in this study, present the current utility of
thermal camera models namely FLIR and SEEK in biomedical applications as an extension of our previous article.
Results: The most significant result is the differences between image qualities of the thermograms captured by
thermal camera models. In other words, the image quality of the thermal images in FLIR One is higher than SEEK
Compact PRO. However, the thermal images of FLIR One are noisier than SEEK Compact PRO since the thermal
resolution of FLIR One is 160 × 120 while it is 320 × 240 in SEEK Compact PRO.
Conclusion: Detecting and revealing the inhomogeneous temperature distribution on the injured toe of the
subject, we, in this paper, analyzed the imaging results of two different smartphone-based thermal camera models
by making comparison among various thermograms. Utilizing the feasibility of the proposed method for faster and
comparative diagnosis in biomedical problems is the main contribution of this study.The work and the contribution were supported by the SPEV project “Smart

Biomedical Signal and Image Processing
Written for senior-level and first year graduate students in biomedical signal and image processing, this book describes fundamental signal and image processing techniques that are used to process biomedical information. The book also discusses application of these techniques in the processing of some of the main biomedical signals and images, such as EEG, ECG, MRI, and CT. New features of this edition include the technical updating of each chapter along with the addition of many more examples, the majority of which are MATLAB based
Entropy in Image Analysis II
Image analysis is a fundamental task for any application where extracting information from images is required. The analysis requires highly sophisticated numerical and analytical methods, particularly for those applications in medicine, security, and other fields where the results of the processing consist of data of vital importance. This fact is evident from all the articles composing the Special Issue "Entropy in Image Analysis II", in which the authors used widely tested methods to verify their results. In the process of reading the present volume, the reader will appreciate the richness of their methods and applications, in particular for medical imaging and image security, and a remarkable cross-fertilization among the proposed research areas
