Functional infrared imaging (fIRI) is a non invasive technique providing a dynamical and functional evaluation of cutaneous thermal properties in several clinical settings.
- class="label">•
An altered functional response due to an isometric exercise plays an important role to evaluate the increase of cutaneous circulation in the presence of inflammatory disease like PsA
- class="label">•
We have demonstrated the feasibility of fIRI as new imaging technique for the detection of peripheral PsA, evaluating different temperatures between PsA patients and a control group after a functional exercise.

fIRI outcome correlated with the presence of active inflammation assessed through PWD-US technique in the considered ROI.
