Diabetes Detection And Measurement Using Tongue Thermal Images

Abstract

The disease diagnoses non-invasively from tongue colour, tongue coating and observing pulse of a person. The tongue colour, and coating appearance change with respect to ailments of organs in human body. The disease diagnoses from tongue coating texture, colour, and other symptoms of body. The tongue coating texture, colour, change to yellow dense and white greasy respectively with respect to syndrome. The two most common syndromes namely cold, hot syndrome. The cold, hot syndrome aid for diagnosing diseases such as stress, inflammation, infection, endocrine disorders, immunity, gastritis, cancer, precancerous lesions and stomach disorder. The tongue also inspects in western medicine to diagnose aspiration pneumonia. The tongue view as a geographical representation of upper gastro intestinal tract which shows symptoms of body illness. The disease diagnosis from tongue colour, texture and coating provide non-invasive way for diabetes diagnosis. The non-invasive method consumes less time for diagnosis compared to blood test and tissue biopsies. Furthermore, the microbiome in tongue represents the functioning of digestive system. The microbiomes in tongue aid in epithelium regeneration, immune response, nutrient absorption and energy metabolism. The microbiomes and epithelial cell generation reflects the gastrointestinal tract function. The microbiomes and epithelial cell show different structural patterns for people suffering from diabetes, obesity, colorectal cancer and bowel diseases. The tongue coating change in colour, and density due to microbiome and epithelial composition. The microbiome and epithelial composition alter thermal active regions of tongue. newline newline newline newlineThe tongue thermal active region of tongue evaluates by acquiring thermal image with thermal camera. The acquired thermal image of tongue shows expelled heat radiation from tongue through thermography. The tongue image acquires involving different regions of Centre, root, tip, and either side of root and Centre. The thermography s
