1. A topographic optical infrared tomography system for biophysical imaging a living body part, which comprises:

  • a thermal camera operably disposable adjacent the living body part for obtaining thermal data readings from the living body part; and

    a computer based device equipped with hardware and software operably connected to said thermal camera, wherein said computer based device employs a predetermined wavelength corresponding to a healthy living body part for use in correcting thermal emissivity variations due to varying angles of thermal emittance in said thermal data readings to provide corrected 3 dimensional thermal data, and wherein said hardware includes a laser for projecting a beam over the living body part to generate Moiré

    surface patterns and said software utilizes Moiré

    surface patterns for the correction of angular thermal radiation of curved surfaces of the living body part.
