Breast Thermography

By evaluating temperature differences and blood vessel patterns, the evaluating doctor can detect signs of physiological stress, including inflammation and infection, and can determine irregular vascularity.
Breast Thermography (or Breast Thermal Imaging) uses a Digital Infrared Camera to detect surface heat; temperature readings are compiled into an image by specialized software for computer analysis, followed by interpretation/evaluation of the images by a trained physician.

COMPARING TECHNOLOGIES

RAINBOW VIEW 

The Rainbow View maps heat differences in color and is used by the evaluating doctor to visualize any regional temperature differences. The doctor is particularly interested in seeing if there is a significant difference in temperature in an area of one breast compared to the contralateral (same) area of the other breast.

GRAYSCALE VIEW 

The Grayscale View is used to visualize vascular pattern(s). Since the concentrated blood in the veins is typically warmer than the surrounding tissue, the veins show up as darker lines in Grayscale View. Irregular vascular patterns can be indicative of abnormal cells forming new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels, a physiological process known as angiogenesis.

It is especially effective for women with Dense Breasts, women with Breast Implants, women who have had Breast Reductions and for Monitoring after Surgery. It is also safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women.
