Thermal Imaging

Fever was the most common condition observed in early medical history. In the early days of Hippocrates, mud was used on the skin to observe fast drying over a tumorous swelling, thereby indicating the rise in temperature.

These days non-invasive imaging techniques are emerging into the forefront of medical diagnostics and treatment monitoring.

Medical thermal imaging is a non-invasive imaging procedure that helps in detecting diseases and physical injuries.

Every person has their own “thermal image” much like a fingerprint. Changes over time in your ‘fingerprint’, or differences from one side of your body to the other can indicate potential issues.

Some of the conditions and injuries that a thermal scan can help detect include:

• back injures
• arthritis
• headache
• nerve damage
• unexplained pain
• fibromyalgia
• RSD
• TMJ dysfunction
• carpal tunnel syndrome
• inflammatory pain
• spain/strain
• soft tissue injuries
• cancers

Thermal scans can be taken of the whole body or just areas being investigated. The digitized images are stored on a computer and can be sent to your MD, specialist, or healthcare practitioner for further interpretation and reporting.

Unlike most diagnostic tests, thermography:

• is non-invasive
• requires no contact with the body
• uses no radiation
• is completely painless

Standard region of interest scans take approximately 15 minutes while full body scans take approximately 30 minutes. Your report is normally completed within a week.
