DOES THE THERMOGRAM DIAGNOSE BREAST CANCER?
Breast Thermography detects physiologic changes in the breast tissue that correlate with cancer. Breast cancer can only be diagnosed by microscopic examination of tissue by a pathologist. Thermography shows earliest detection of abnormal cells, up to 8 years earlier than a standard Mammogram. WHEN BREAST THERMOGRAMS ARE POSITIVE Thermograms receive ratings TH1 (no detection) thru TH5 (cancer detected). Women may have personal variances of circulation that show up as “warm spots” that lack specific criteria of “hot spots” that are definitively associated with breast cancer. Ratings of TH3 are “fence sitters” requiring repeat thermal imaging between 3-6 months to reveal whether the initial areas of thermal concern will resolve, stabilize, or worsen. Depending on the thermography rating and clinical findings, a referral may be made to a Specialist for further assessment. Physicians trained in holistic medicine may recommend preventive, such as nutritional, environmental or lifestyle chang
