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.
Suzanne was very professional, caring and thorough with her explanation, but most importantly I knew my testing was safe. Thank-you Suzanne for a wonderful and positive experience!
Women of all ages, who want to take a pro-active approach to their health, who’ve had inconclusive mammograms or physical breast examinations or have dense or fibrocystic breasts.
Breast thermal imaging is non-invasive, safe & completely painless – no radiation or compression is used and there is no touching by either the equipment or the technician throughout.
