Ashley Ageloff, our senior thermographic technician for the south florida region will take several pictures of your body from different angles with a thermography camera that can photograph the heat map of your body. Doctors interpret the pictures for precursers to various illnesses. Thermal cameras can detect heat on the skin surface that may show underlying pathologies. The report will come back to you in five to seven days. Ashley Ageloff will go over your results with you and help make recommendations based on your specific thermography scan. Dr. Kane who has 30 years experience interprets the report, rather than doctors.

At age twenty this should be considered an annual screening because breast cancer rates for younger women are growing. Over 40,000 women per year are diagnosed with breast cancer that are under the age of forty. Since women can not get a mammogram until the age of forty, thermography is a screening tool that you can get starting at a younger age. Once a baseline is established you can monitor any significant changes over time. This can lead to a life of health and prevention. There may not be a cure for cancer, so early detection is the best cure.

Thermography reads the surface temperature of the skin. Thermogrpahy is not a diagnostic test; it is a screening test. With thermography you can monitor yourself by seeing changes in real time on your scan. You are seeing the inflammation which is a precursor to cancer and other diseases.

Heat can be present due to many factors. Inflammation is occuring for a reason in the body and it can be due to a pathological process or injury.
