Pictorial scheme of applying the forcing procedure and placement of thermovision camera with respect to patient’s body (left) and corresponding thermovisual image (right). The camera is placed 20 cm away from the patient’s skin (in this case from forehead). Squares reminiscent of patient’s forehead areas is another dose of the laser given by an experienced operator. Energy of laser radiation is delivered to patient’s skin in the form of pulses which affect a definite tissue area. Thermal reaction of the skin is strongly related to the kind of forcing, the spot of radiation beam focus on the skin, and the process of human body thermoregulation.
