General Guideline Principles for Thermography for Diagnosing CRPS for workers compensation patients

The guidelines created by the New York State workers’ compensation board are designed to aid physicians, podiatrists, and other healthcare professionals in delivering suitable treatment using Thermography for Diagnosing Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS).

These guidelines from the Workers Compensation Board are meant to support healthcare professionals in determining the right level of care for patients dealing with Complex regional Pain.

It’s crucial to note that these guidelines don’t replace clinical judgment or professional experience. The final decision about care should be a collaborative effort between the patient and their healthcare provider.
