Abstract
The clinical and experimental use of infrared scanning instruments for surface temperature measurements requires a knowledge of heat distribution in living tissue. A heat coil and a temperature registering thermistor encased in titanium were implanted subcutaneously in rabbits. After a healing period the relation between the power output from the heat sources at various depths and the temperature pattern of the overlying skin surface was studied.Keywords
