SUV, standardized uptake value; Tscv, skin temperature on the supraclavicular region; Tc, skin temperature on the chest region; Δtemp, differences between Tscv and Tc; Tscv-time, difference in Tscv between before and after hand immersion; Tc-time, difference in Tc between before and after hand immersion.
*P < 0.05 (Pearson’s correlation analysis).
