Thermography FAQ


The thermal images are sent to Physician’s Insight Interpretation. The health scan imaging staff includes over 10 medical doctors who received over 12-18 months of thermographic training and have many years of experience. Their knowledge is unparalleled.


It is extremely safe! Thermography is as safe as having your picture taken. Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging uses no radiation and no compression of the body is needed. The health scan imaging procedure is painless, safe, and uses FDA approved technology.


Unlike most medical imaging modalities, thermal imaging is non-invasive. We never need to come in contact with the patient at any time during the process.

Thermal imaging provides valuable information about what is going on inside your body. You’ve probably read that inflammation is at the root of most disease. Thermography is ideal for identifying inflammation in our bodies and identifying patterns that could possibly suggest:

  • Breast Cancer Risk Assessment
  • Dental Pathology Infection
  • Digestive Disorders
  • Sinus and Allergies
  • Heart Disease & Potential for Stroke
  • Lymphatic Stagnation
  • Neuropathy & Vascular Disorders
  • Joint Dysfunction & Arthritis
  • Referred Pain & Trigger Points
  • Injuries & Fractures


EveryBODY is unique and has their own unique thermal pattern. By establishing a health scan imaging baseline for you and monitoring your progress going forward through yearly thermographic check ups, you are able to see potential issues and take action before a disease process takes root in your body.

Yes! Thermography is ideal if you have breast implants. The accuracy of thermography is not affected in people with implants. Since there is no compression, there is absolutely no risk of damaging the implants. In addition there is no radiation that can cause drying of the implants over time.

For breast health scan imaging specifically, Thermography is ideal for

  • Dense breasts
  • Breasts with implants
  • Previous radiation treatment
  • Women from teens to age 50
  • Fibrocystic breasts
  • Post-mastectomy
  • Inconclusive mammogram


No form of medical imaging can diagnose cancer. Biopsy alone can accurately diagnose cancer. However, thermography can detect the earliest physiological indications of breast cancer. Additionally, thermography can identify patterns that indicate estrogen dominance which is associated with a higher risk for breast cancer. Health scan imaging can also identify lymphatic congestion which is also a forerunner to disease.


When these patterns are identified, it enables a people to make important lifestyle changes so that they can have peace of mind and know that they are giving their best effort to making healthy choices and avoiding disease. As we monitor your progress through yearly visits, we will be able to see the effects of your good choices.

The strength of thermography is the ability to monitor change over time. Before we can monitor change, we must establish an accurate baseline for you. One health scan imaging study cannot provide an accurate baseline so we strive to have two studies done in a 3 month period so that we can ensure that your body’s physiology is suitable to be used as a normal baseline. The importance of this baseline cannot be emphasized enough. It’s a powerful tool.
