In order to identify the exact location of a useful perforator for DIEP flap breast reconstruction, CT images are made in the pre-operative phase. The aim of this research is to evaluate if dynamic infrared thermography is a helpful tool to check and visualize the blood flow in the flap during the pre- and peroperative phase. The results will be used in order to pinpoint the usefulness of IR thermography as an alternative method for perforator mapping and flapdesign. By means of infrared thermography the blood vessel distribution and its vascularisation of the abdominal wall will be visualized. The thermal images can help to detect the correct perforator and can help to decide which parts of the flap are best perfused and can be used for the DIEP flap reconstruction. Full article
