Abstract
The invention relates to a thermographic system comprising infrared imaging means, a radiation source and a duct (18) for guiding the radiation in a longitudinal direction (L) to an outlet of the duct (18) located at a free edge (28) thereof, characterized in that the free edge (28) of the duct (18) is deformable along the longitudinal axis (L) in a first direction (L1) oriented from the outlet of the duct (18) towards the imaging means (12) and in that it comprises means for returning the free edge to its initial shape and means for holding said free edge of the duct (18) in a deformed state.
