What is ThermoFace?
Researchers from Peking University created a new tool called ThermoFace. Unlike older ways to measure( 测量) one’s body temperature，it examines different parts of the face to check people’s age and health.
▲
The face has many blood vessels( 血管). With their help，ThermoFace can find “hot” and “cool” areas in the face that change with age and illness. For example，as people become older，the temperature of their nose goes down faster than other parts of their face. If someone’s nose is warmer，it means they are younger. However，the area around the eyes usually gets hotter as people get older. Scientists also found that people with high blood pressure( 高 血 压) have warmer cheeks( 脸颊). With ThermoFace，doctors can detect people’s illness earlier. They can do more tests and give advice.
Can ThermoFace work perfectly?
Will ThermoFace work the same for everyone? We still don’t know. Other factors，like doing exercise and eating ice cream，can change the temperature of your face. The tool can’t tell us why something has happened，but it can show doctors that there might be a problem.
ThermoFace is helpful for research，but we still need to find out if it can be used in real life to help doctors.
