Evaluation of Mammary Cancer in 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-Induced Wister Rats by Asymmetrical Temperature Distribution Analysis Using Thermography: A Comparison with Serum CEA Levels and Histopathology

Figure 4

RGB histogram of single rat thermal image in different regions (a) lower right (tumor induced) flank region, (b) lower left flank region, (c) right abdomen region, (d) left abdomen region, (e) right shoulder region, and (f) left shoulder region. Red and blue pixel distributions were symmetrical between right and left sides in tumor induced flank region except green pixel distribution (asymmetrical). All red, green, and blue pixel distributions were symmetrical between corresponding right and left sides in nontumor sites (abdomen and shoulder regions).
