Q: What is Thermography?
A: Using ultra-sensitive infrared cameras we are able to detect temperature variations associated with potential tumor development. Those images are then captured and displayed as high resolution images.
See videos of breast Thermography in the news here.
Q: What are the benefits of Thermography?
A: Thermography is screening to assess breast cancer risk in its earliest stages. Thermal images may show physiological changes that occur before a tumor develops. Earlier detection of breast cancer offers broader treatment options and more successful results.
Q: Is Thermography safe?
A: Yes, Thermography is completely safe and 100% radiation free. It's a painless and non-invasive procedure with zero side effects.
