What is medical thermography? Southend
Medical thermography or Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI), is the practice of measuring the body’s surface temperature in order to visual inflammation, blood circulation and nerve damage.
Even though medical thermography can provide a visual roadmap of your health and wellness, its most common application is for breast cancer assessments. This is because temperature patterns associated with the blood flow that feeds cancel cells can be detected using thermal imaging.
Therefore, medical thermography can assist in the early detection of breast cancer up to eight years before mammography and other conventional diagnostic modalities.
Other reasons to consider medical thermography include:
- Proactive prevention – Early detection is still the most important factor in the outcome of breast disease.
- No radiation – Both the patient and practitioner don’t need to worry about radiation poisoning.
- Non-invasive – The process of medical thermography is similar to taking a photo with minimal human contact required.
- 100% safe – Nothing is emitted from the camera, nothing is injected into your body, and there is no risk of damage to your cellular DNA.
- Affordable screening method – The inexpensive nature of medical thermography makes a welcome change to other diagnostic imaging procedures.
- Reliable and far-reaching – The thyroid and lymph glands in the armpits, often involved in breast disease, can be picked up by medical thermography.
- Versatile applications – Medical thermography can help you monitor the healing process after surgery, chemo- or radiation therapy.
