Thermal Imaging is also known as Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (D.I.T.T) or Thermography. This is a non-invasive clinical imaging technique for detecting and monitoring diseases and physical injuries by showing any thermal abnormalities present in the body. Thermography uses special infrared-sensitive cameras to digitally record images of the variations in surface temperature of the human body. The recorded images are calling thermograms. These thermograms are then analyzed by a medical doctor who will give diagnosis/prognosis based on the images.
Thermography can be used as an aid in diagnosis and prognosis. It also as well as monitoring therapy progress for conditions and injuries which include: Artery Inflammation, Arthritis, Back Injuries, Breast Cancer, Breast Disease, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Cystic Formations, DCIS, Dental & TMJ, Digestive Disorders, Disc Disease, Diverticulitis, Fibromyalgia, Headache/Migraine Cause, Heart Disease, Inflammatory Pain, Referred Pain Syndrome, RSD (CRPS), Sprain/Strain, Stroke Screening, Thrombosis (Deep Vein), Unexplained Pain, Varicosities, Vascular Disease, Whiplash, and much more!
Breast Thermography is approved by the FDA as an alternative to a traditional mammogram. It can detect signs of cancer up to ten years earlier. As a safe, non-invasive screen technique for breast cancer, there is no touching or compression of the breast during the exam, which only takes minutes to complete.
