    Abstract:
    Primary experience (177 patients) of diagnosis of thyroid gland diseases with radiothermography using microwave radiothermometer RTM-01-RES is analyzed. In unaffected thyroid gland there were no temperature differences between symmetric points of right and left lobe. Cancer of thyroid gland and toxic adenoma are characterized by higher internal temperature. High sensitivity of method and its simplicity are the reasons for use of radiothermography as screening method.
