Proper training is needed to provide accurate information. The infrared camera is only as good as the thermographer using it. There are many different types of cameras some as cheap as $200 and others as expensive as 25 thousand dollars or more. I use a camera that exceeds the minimum standards of technology for easier interpretation of an image.
Anomalies can occur from improper temperature differences, reflections and different building materials (called emissivity). It is critical for the thermographer to provide accurate information. This is why a second tool is often used to confirm defects, especially for moisture intrusion. The camera measure the surface temperatures of the building materials, is not X-ray vision (cannot see through clothes and walls), and can locate defects that are manifesting themselves in some way.
