Summary

This study explores whether a high-resolution thermal camera can help doctors quickly detect infections in children's bones, joints, or soft tissues. About 30 children with suspected infections will have a 10-second video taken of the affected area to see if temperature differences can spot the infection. The goal is to find a faster, cheaper, and safer alternative to MRI scans, which often require sedation for young children.
