OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to provide proof-of-concept for the use of Medical Infrared Thermography to verify both diagnosis and osteopathic management accuracy in back pain. METHODS A 50-year-old woman with acute back pain syndrome volunteered to participate in this study. RESULTS Prior the treatment, thermal image reveals that in a sagittal plane, the inflammation extends from vertebra D8 to L3 with a maximum inflammation between vertebrae D10 to L1. Post-treatment, Medical Infrared Thermography only shows a slight inflammation along the lumbar furrow that does not induce pain in the patient. CONCLUSION Medical Infrared Thermography has made it possible to scientifically support the osteopathic approach to back pain, both in the initial diagnostic phase and in the validation phase of treatment effectivess.
