ABSTRACT
In physical medicine, cryotherapy refers to the brief exposure of a selected body region (local cryotherapy) or the whole body to extremely low temperatures.
In practice, this involves local cryotherapy devices and various types of cryogenic chambers. Local cryotherapy remains an important adjunct in treatment
and rehabilitation, while integration of the blower nozzle with a thermovision camera expands procedural monitoring capabilities. Thermovision enables
assessment of temperature distribution before, during, and after cooling, supporting both patient safety and improved adaptation of procedural parameters
to the treated area.
