This article aims to present the influence of infrared thermography on masonry walls to detect pathological manifestations. A systematic review was carried out through research with automatic search and snow-balling, selection and sifting of articles to restrict them to the desired theme. After that, infrared thermography in the pathological manifestations was studied along with the thermal properties and their behavior, thermal bridges, temperature difference and air infiltrations. In general, some care must be taken during the execution of experiments and measurements. It has also been shown that infrared thermography is a complex technique and should be used.

Palabras llave : infrared thermography; thermal performance; pathological manifestations; thermal properties; air leakage.
