Summary

This study explores whether a special 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 the heat pattern matches the infection. The goal is to find a faster, safer, and cheaper way to diagnose these serious infections without using radiation or sedation.
