Breast Thermograph

Breast thermography is a diagnostic procedure that images the breasts to aid in the early detection of breast cancer.

The procedure is based on the principle that chemical and blood vessel activity in both pre-cancerous tissue and the area surrounding a developing breast cancer is almost always higher than in the normal breast. Since pre-cancerous and cancerous masses are highly metabolic tissues, they need an abundant supply of nutrients to maintain their growth. In order to do this they increase circulation to their cells by sending out chemicals to keep existing blood vessels open, recruit dormant vessels, and create new ones (neoangiogenesis). This process results in an increase in regional surface temperatures of the breast.

Please Note:
"Mammograms exposes you to approximately, 1,000 times of radiation you'd get in a chest x-ray."
("The Secret of Health" Breast Wisdom, Ben Johnson, MD., DO., N.M.D., Integrated oncologist)

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) in the US, states that 40% of cancers are missed during a mammography screening in women aged 40-49 and misses 10% of cancerous tumors in women over 50.
