| Research Abstract |
We conducted clinical trials to test the validity of the evaluations made by the developed device based on estimated skin tissue thermal diffusivity. In this study, a patient was below an elderly person in the blood flow which can be evaluated by this devise. Also, we recognized that there are some research tasks to test the validity of the evaluations with thermal diffusivity of skin tissue for Ischemia.
