Figure 4.

Experimental set-up to demonstrate elevated false temperature values in the thermograms (left 2 – 5 μm; right above 7.5 – 13 μm) predominantly caused by reflection. In the thermogram, the actual surface skin temperature is noted as 31.2°C measured at a point next to the reflection using additional temperature sensor equipment (above center).
