How does Thermography work?
Modern Thermologists use digital cameras that record infrared radiation emitted by the human body and convert them into temperature readings and plot them on a computer screen. Thermologist’s are then able to identify areas of hot and cold in relation to the opposite side of the body. Areas with decreased blood flow will have colder temperature readings and areas of increased blood flow will have warmer temperature readings.
What can Thermography detect?
Thermography picks up skin surface temperatures on the human body that can be used for analysis by a trained thermologist. Any disease process that emits heat or decreases circulation can possibly be detected through infrared thermal imaging. The FDA has cleared the following as adjunctive screening methods with thermography:
-
Breast Cancer
-
Thyroid Pathology
-
Cerebrovascular Health
-
Neuro-muscular Pathology
Other promising and emerging areas deserving consideration include:
-
Infection
-
Fibrocystic breast disease
-
Vascular disease
-
Lymphatic stagnation
-
Breast Health
-
Skin Cancer
-
Testicular Cancer
What Makes Thermography Unique?
Thermography or Digital Infrared Imaging (DITI) helps in detecting heat produced by an increased level of blood vessel circulation (angioneogenesis) and metabolic changes linked with the genesis of a tumor. Benefits to Thermography include:
-
Breast Thermography is safe and comfortable.
-
No Radiation
-
No Contact
-
No Compression
-
Easy to establish a baseline
-
Able to use for women with dense breasts and implants
-
Well Researched for more than 30 years (more than 800 peer-reviewed studies)
-
It helps to identify around 95% of the early stage of cancer in a multi-modal approach
