Maybe.
If I understand correctly, the process they're using is something like the following...
1) Cool the skin down to some depth by applying an icepack
2) Remove icepack and take a video of the skin with infra-red (a temperature map) as the skin reaches thermal equilibrium.
3) Process the "stack" of images by measuring the thermal conductivity at each point-- you do this by getting a curve of the temperature for each point.
This will give you a map of structures underneath the skin which have different material properties (a different thermal conductivity).
