Abstrakt: The value of thermography in evaluating neck and back pain is assessed based on a simple random sample of 405 Active Fellows of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. There were 316 responses to the survey with 293 Fellows indicating that they evaluate neck and back pain. Eighteen use thermography and seven find thermography helpful in their practice. The use of thermography in the courtroom to document painful conditions of the neck and back is not supported by this survey.
