What is Breast Thermography?
Breast Thermography is a breakthrough imaging procedure where infrared images of the breast are analyzed and rated to determine the risk of developing breast cancer.
The infrared imaging process allows you to see the range and amount of heat or thermal energy emitted from the body.
Structural tests, such as mammograms and ultrasound rely on finding physical lesions (anatomy), while Breast Thermography detects asymmetrical blood vessel circulation (physiology) within the breast.
Thermography is based on the scientific premise that before the growth of abnormal cells can occur, an increased blood supply must be circulated to the growth area.
Thermography measures the heat generated by the microcirculation of blood in the breast during this process.
