Sažetak
Trauma is the most common cause of hospitalisation in children, and clavicle fractures comprise 8-15% of all pediatric fractures. The vast majority of those fractures is treated non-operatively with excelent results. The three phases of fracture healing in pediatric trauma are associated with skin temperature changes that can be measured and then compared with standard plain radiogrphs of visible callus formation, and eventually these methods can be used in everyday practice. Thermographic assessment of temperature distribution within the examined tissues enables a quick, non-contact, non-invasive measurement of their temperature. Medical thermography is used as a screening method in other parts of medicine, but the use of this method in traumatology has still not been researched.
