Extracts from the Article What's this?

This area was identified by visual inspection of the image exhibited in the monitor screen in an equidistant position between the knee and superior limits of the thigh and between lateral and medial limits of the thigh from each subject (Fig. 1 c).

Moreover, there was a similar pattern of higher temperature concentration on the exercised limbs after exercise (Fig. 1 ).

The cooling of the contralateral limb can also be observed in the thermograms of young subjects (Fig. 1 )..
