Why Thermal Imaging?

Thermal Imaging is 100% PAINLESS, 100% SAFE, and will IMPROVE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF YOUR CURRENT SCREENING METHODS.

FDA Approved since 1982

Your Personal Biological Risk Indicator - Thermal Breast Imaging is a physiological test that assesses signs of cancer development at the cellular stage, supporting early detection. 

No X-rays / Radiation - Thermal Breast Imaging is completely non-invasive, making it safe & accurate for all women, especially those requiring more frequent monitoring, or who cannot tolerate radiation exposure.

Complete Evaluation - Thermal examine areas of breast tissue in the upper chest and armpit area that is missed by other screening methods.

 

What is Thermal Imaging, or Thermography?

Thermal Imaging, or Thermography, is the detection and study of heat patterns on the body. They help indicate normal or abnormal activity in the underlying tissue.

How does thermal imaging work?

Thermal Imaging uses a high-resolution digital thermal camera to take a picture of your body’s heat and display these patterns in the form of a digital image.

The cells of your body produce heat through their normal function.  Diseased cells, like cancer, usually produce much more heat in their earliest stages of development (before a tumor forms). 

Before most cancerous tumors grow, the cancer cells will:

• stimulate new blood vessels to grow
• re-open unused blood vessels
• maintain those blood vessels already in use

The cancer cells build a vast network of blood vessels in the area it will ultimatley grow. A tumor needs more blood flow than normal cells to support its rapid growth. With more blood flow, there is more heat.  Thermal Imaging examines these “hot spots” which, can be the earliest warning signs of cancerous activity. This activity has been shown to begin years before a tumor forms, and before any warning signs can be given by other screening methods .
