Studies show that:
• An abnormal infrared image is the single most important marker of high risk for developing breast cancer
• An abnormal infrared finding is 8 times more significant than a first order family history of the disease.
• A persistent abnormal thermogram carries with it a 22x higher risk of future breast cancer.
• When added to a woman’s regu- lar breast health checkups, a 61% increased survival rate has been realized.
• Finally, when used as part of a mul- timodal approach (clinical examina- tion + mammography + thermogra- phy) 95% of early stage cancers will be detected.
A positive thermal scan may indicate the presence of many different breast ab- normalities such as mastitis, benign tumors, fibrocystic breast disease, inflammatory breast disease, and lymphatic congestion.
Thermography is as Unique as a Fingerprint
Each patient has a particular infrared map of their breasts, which over time can become as reliable as a fingerprint. Any modification of this infrared map on serial imaging (images taken over months to years) can constitute an early sign of an abnormality. In patients without cancer, the examination results are used to indicate the level of possible future cancer risk.
Consequently, in the absence of other
positive tests, an abnormal infrared image gives a woman an early warning. By maintaining close monitoring of her breast health with annual infrared imaging, self breast exams, clinical examinations, and other tests, a woman has a much better chance of detecting cancer at its earli- est stage and preventing invasive tumor growth.
Thermography does not have the ability to pinpoint the location of a tumor. Consequently, breast thermography’s role is in addition to mammography or ultrasound and physical examination, not in lieu of. Breast thermography does not replace mammography or ultrasound and mam-
mography or ultrasound does not replace breast thermography. These diagnostic tests complement each other. Since it has been determined that 1 in 8 women will get breast cancer, we must use every means possible to detect diseases of the breast when there is the greatest chance for survival. Proper use of breast self-exams, physician exams, thermography, mammog- raphy and ultrasound together provide the earliest detection system available to date. If treated in the earliest stages, cure rates greater than 95% are possible.
Ingrid LeVasseur, BA, CCT, founded Inner Image Health Screening, LLC in 2006 to bring this adjunct screening technology to Maine. She is grateful to the women who
have chosen thermography these past 13 years, making Inner Image Health Screen- ing the longest serving thermography clinic in the state of Maine. Inner Image Health Screening provides medical thermal imaging at 14 locations, from Kennebunk to Bangor. Her permanent location is in Falmouth, ME. See ad on page 7 and 17.
