“…Thermograms have played a significant role in diagnostic imaging studies. They serve as a source for developing image processing activities, which include segmentation tasks for separating the regions under study, as presented in [ [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] ] and identification of descriptive features and classification, as published [ [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] ].
