What is Thermography (Medical Infrared Imaging)?
Infrared Imaging is a non-contact, non-invasive procedure for visualizing the body’s physiologic response — and there are no risks or side effects. Thermal patterns are displayed on the skin and detected by the infrared sensor of the camera. Interpreted as temperature data it is transmitted to the computer where all images are stored as pictures. All information is correlated to the client’s main area of complaint or symptoms. By detecting thermal asymmetry, thermal imaging offers the physician an added dimension to the diagnostic picture, detecting neurological and vascular information not available on x-ray. The other areas of detection include vascular or blood vessel anarchy or inappropriate appearing blood vessels. Abnormal cells including cancer cells require a blood supply to grow. These blood vessels tend to be atypical from normal and can be detected with our high contrast digital thermogram camera. The reports are formally read by a Board Certified Thermographic Physician an
