Cancer
Thermography a Safe and Very Effective Alternative to Mammograms
Date: 19/09/08
Keywords: Cancer, Breast Cancer
In an ideal world breast cancer should be detected at its very early stages, before the tumour has grown to a sufficient size. Unfortunately, for the tumour to be detected by a mammogram or physical examination it must’ve grown for several years, and achieved more than 25 doublings of the malignant cell colony. You guessed it: By the time you get a warning from your mammogram the tumour may already be at a growth-stage where it is too difficult and too late to treat.I read through some reader-feedback on our website this morning and came across this remark: “Thank you for explaining the ugly truths about mammography which mainstream medicine for the most part chooses to ignore while making every attempt to bully patients into having mammograms.”
What struck me most was the words ‘...bully patients into having mammograms.’ And I had to ask myself: Bullying? ...What are the alternatives to this invasive, painful, ineffective and unsafe procedure?

Enter THERMOGRAPHY.
Many doctors recognise that inflammation is a precursor to numerous diseases such as cancer, arthritis, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Early detection of inflammation may help you prevent the detection of many negative health conditions. You can reduce inflammation with dietary changes, nutritional supplements, antioxidants, detoxification, stress reduction, and more. This is where thermal imaging or thermography comes in to the picture...
This tool creates a digital map of your body that illustrates heat patterns. This may detect some condition or abnormality. It uses an infrared camera that scans and measures your body surface temperature, presenting the information as a digitized image, called a thermograph. These thermal images are analyzed for abnormalities that may be signs of disease in your body. Additionally, since your body is thermally symmetrical if normal, thermal asymmetries can indicate problems.
Benefits, benefits, benefits
Thermograms will be of particular interest to women but men will also find benefit from this tool, as it not only specialises in breast imaging but also excel in early- stage disease detection. For example:
* Arthritis: Thermography not only helps detect early signs of arthritis but can also differentiate between osteoarthritis and more severe forms like rheumatoid. Effective early treatment strategies can then be implemented, before you experience further degeneration.
* Heart disease: screenings can assess heart function and detect inflammation in the carotid arteries (which may be a precursor to stroke and blood clots). Earlier detection of a heart problem may save your life.
* Neck and Back Pain: Thermal pain patterns ‘light up' white and red hot on a scan. You can get relief faster and begin restorative care that targets the affected area more precisely.
* Dental Issues: A thermal scan will indicate temporomandibular joint (TMJ), gum disease, or an infected tooth, as white or red hot.
* Sinus Issues & Headaches: Significant heat in your forehead or sinus region revealed on a thermal scan is an indicator that these systems in your body are not functioning properly.
* Immune Dysfunction, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue: The immune system correlates to the T1 andT2 areas of your spine - high levels of heat in that region can indicate immune dysfunction. On the other hand, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and aching joints are just a few complaints that correlate to cool patterns seen at this area.
* Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS): This condition is often misdiagnosed. For instance, you may think you have CTS, yet the scan shows your neck is referring pain from a different affected area. This will help you get the most appropriate treatment.
* Digestive Disorders: Irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis and Crohn's disease are often visible with thermography. If you're able to address these conditions early on, you'll find that health restoration is much more likely.
* Other Conditions: Including bursitis, herniated discs, ligament or muscle tear, lupus, nerve problems, whiplash, stroke screening, cancer, and many, many others.
Back to the ladies
Mammograms look at anatomical changes in the breast, as they detect masses or lumps in the breast tissue. On the other hand, thermograms look at vascular changes in the breast, as they detect blood flow patterns, inflammation and asymmetries. Thermography can detect irregular patterns in the breast, conditions that occur before a noticeable lump is formed. In some cases, such as inflammatory cancer, there are no lumps to be detected by self-exam or mammogram. That's why adding thermography to your annual health routine can help with early detection. You'll increase your chances of detecting breast cancer in its earliest stages.
Unlike most diagnostic tests, thermal imaging is, not painful, non-invasive and quick – your multi-image exams usually take less than 15 minutes. Plus, it makes no contact with your body - no compression (such as what you experience with mammograms) and it emits absolutely NO radiation.
Voila! No radiation, no squashing, no mashing and bruising. Early detection, quicker diagnoses and prevention and a healthier happier you.
I sincerely hope that this e-alert will help you find alternative measures to a procedure that should really be as comfortable and easy as possible.
