BREAST SPECIFIC SCANS
BREAST HEALTH IS THE BEST HEALTH
A Breast Scan allows you to view your breasts unique thermal fingerprint which is extremely beneficial to you in regards to breast cancer prevention.
It allows you to visually see and address potential issues in your breasts that may or may not be symptomatic but could be in potential development.
​
- Thermal Images are taken of the breast region to determine abnormalities or changes in the breast tissue, monitor abnormal physiology and the establishment of risk factors for the development or existence of a disease.
-
Thermography can detect irregular patterns years before a mammogram.
-
When used with other procedures, the best possible evaluation of breast health is made such as in the intervals between mammographic screenings or when mammography is not indicated by screening guidelines for women under 50 years of age.
-
This test can provide a ‘clinical marker’ to the doctor or mammographer that a specific area of the breast needs particularly close examination. The faster a malignant tumor grows, the more infrared radiation it generates.
-
Thermography is especially appropriate for younger women between 30 and 50 whose denser breast tissue makes it more difficult for mammography to pick up suspicious lesions which can lead to earlier detection and ultimately a longer life.
NORMAL BREAST
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
​​
Good thermal symmetry with no suspicious thermal findings. These patterns represent a baseline that won’t alter over time and can only be changed by pathology.

NORMAL BREAST
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
FIBROCYSTIC BREAST
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
Significant vascular activity in the left breast which was clinically correlated with fibrocystic changes.

FIBROCYSTIC BREAST
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
INFLAMATORY BREAST CANCER
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
There were no visible signs of abnormality. Referral to a breast specialist and a subsequent biopsy diagnosed inflammatory breast cancer at a very early stage.
INFLAMMATORY BREAST CANCER
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
DUCTAL CARCINOMA BREAST
THERMOGRAPHY SCANS
The vascular asymmetry in the upper left breast was particularly suspicious and clinical investigation indicated a palpable mass. A biopsy was performed and a DCIS of 2 cm was diagnosed.
