Novel methods of imaging and analysis for the thermoregulatory sweat test

Novel methods of imaging and analysis for the thermoregulatory sweat test The thermoregulatory sweat test (TST) can be central to the identification and management of several common neurological disorders, but the cumbersome nature of the standard testing protocol has prevented its widespread adoption. In this study, images from 89 clinical TSTs were analyzed retrospectively using two novel techniques. Our results suggest that these improved methods could make sweat testing more reliable and acceptable for screening and management of a range of neurological disorders. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Applied Physiology The American Physiological Society

Abstract

The thermoregulatory sweat test (TST) can be central to the identification and management of several common neurological disorders, but the cumbersome nature of the standard testing protocol has prevented its widespread adoption. In this study, images from 89 clinical TSTs were analyzed retrospectively using two novel techniques. Our results suggest that these improved methods could make sweat testing more reliable and acceptable for screening and management of a range of neurological disorders.
