Statistics indicates that one in eight women will get breast cancer at some point in their life. In addition to proper breast self-exams and physician exams, thermography and Mammography together provide the earliest detection system for breast cancer.

With Breast Thermogrphy, it is recommended to have 2 scans done within a 3 – 4 month period since active cancers double in size and heat approximately 100 days apart. If there are no changes, then annual thermal scans are appropriate.

Thermography screening also help to assess the heart function and to detect inflammation in the Carotid arteries. These may be precursor to stroke and blood clots. Early detection of a heart problem may save your life.

Heat patterns detected by Thermography indicate inflammation, which is precursor to disease in the body and directly correlates with other diagnostic tests. Early detection of inflammation is critical since it helps you to prevent or intervene in the development process before it turns into disease.

Inflammation can also be reduced by dietary changes, supplements, detoxification, stress-reduction, massage and acupuncture.

An infrared scanning device is used to convert infrared radiation emitted from the skin surface into electrical impulses that are visualized in color on a monitor. This visual image graphically maps the body temperature and is referred to as a thermogram.

Note: Avoid heavy exercise, deodorant, spicy foods, hot beverages, body creams and lotions, gum chewing, and tight-fitting clothing on the day of your thermogram.
