At this Clinic, given the incidence of breast
cancer nowadays in younger women, we recommend regular annual Breast
Health Checks with thermal infrared imaging, much like a regular
dental check up, for women of all ages from 20 onwards.
- 100% safe, radiation free, non-contact and painless.
- Very early detection of cancer risk (up to 10 years earlier
than mammography).
- It is unique in its capacity to visually record physiological
problems and metabolic processes.
- Cancers are associated with increased temperature and abnormal
blood vessel patterns, both detected on Medical Infrared Scans
(we call them thermal scans). Furthermore, a single cold
challenge can help to identify abnormal blood vessels.
- 90% sensitivity. This means that where there is an increased
risk, medical infrared scanning will correctly identify this
in 90% of cases (one third of mammograms give
false readings).
- Can be used in conjunction with the cancer profile blood test
to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment
non-invasively.
Thermal scans can be repeated as often as you
like with no risk or radiation and are therefore very suited for regular
and frequent monitoring (post surgery or during treatment) or in
cases where a patient might be unwilling to proceed with
surgery (DCIS)
