Wherein the thermal images processing module is configured to extract a location of the marker and uses the location as a reference to calculate the temperatures of the following five regions: 2 cm x 2 cm area of medial tibial plateau, 2 cm x 2 cm area of lateral tibial plateau, 2 cm x 2 cm area of medial femoral condyle and 2 cm x 2 cm area of lateral femoral condylar as well as 2 cm x 1 cm area of suprapatellar. The network transmits the results extracted by the thermal image processing module to the medical terminal for the physician to make a diagnosis. The invention can remotely provide a doctor expert with accurate knee joint skin temperature value of the knee osteoarthritis patient, so as to help the doctor expert to carry out early diagnosis and formulation of a treatment scheme to benefit the patient.1/4 Thermal image processing module _9 91 92 93 94 Sa marker a position a a total skin identifying calculating temperature temperature sub-module sub-block converting calculation sub-block sub-module 7-4 2cmx 2cmx2cm 2cmx2cm 2cmx2cm 2 cmx 1cm 2cm area area area area area extractio extraction extraction extraction extraction n unit of unit of unit of unit of unit of medial lateral tibial medial lateral suprapatellar 5 -- tibial plateau femoral femoral area plateau condyle condyle 921 922 923 924 925 n- 10Figure 1
