  1. What Is Medical Thermography? What Conditions Can Be Treated With It? Medical thermography is a test that uses an infrared camera to detect heat patterns and blood flow in body tissues. It is used as a research method for early pre-clinical diagnosis and control during the treatment of homeostatic imbalances. This article will discuss some important things you should know about medical thermography.

  2. What is medical thermography? Medical thermography is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that allows the examiner to visualize and quantify changes in skin surface temperature. In the body, inflammation is indicated by heat patterns and is a sign of impending disease. Identifying inflammation early is essential because you can stop it or take action before it develops into a disease. Additionally, tracking inflammation over time can be a very efficient way to determine the presence and severity of a medical issue. How is medical thermography testing done? The infrared heat emitted from the skin surface is converted by an infrared scanning device into electrical impulses shown on a monitor in 16 different colors. Thermograms are visual representations of the body temperature that are graphically mapped. The medical thermography, which takes 15 to 30 minutes, enables your integrative medicine doctor to become aware of any potential underlying breast disease and other chronic illnesses, such as heart disease and digestive disorders.

  3. What does a thermography scan show exactly? During medical thermography, pain in the body manifests as hyperthermia (hot spots: red and white) or hypothermia (cold spots: blue, purple, and black), signifying a vascular or nerve issue within the body. The color spectrum shows a change in the quantity of infrared heat emitted from the surface of your body. The average body has a high degree of thermal symmetry, making it simple to spot even the smallest anomalous temperature asymmetries. What diseases can thermography detect? Early signs of breast and chest cancer Between mammographic exams, the medical thermography tests your probability of finding rapidly growing, aggressive cancers. Your breast thermo grams are documented and serve as the starting point for any subsequent routine examinations. When a mammogram is deemed medically necessary, breast thermography does not replace it. Arthritis According to research, the first indication of arthritis-related inflammation is slight temperature fluctuations in joints. The earliest inflammatory stage of arthritis manifests plainly as heat. However, as the condition develops, the temperature of the joints

Tracking your arthritis with medical thermography can help you determine whether your medication effectively prevents further loss of joint mobility. Diabetes With thermography, you can prevent potentially harmful consequences if you have diabetes. It is a prognostic and diagnostic technique for type 2 diabetes. It aids in the early diagnosis of diabetic foot, vascular disease, and neuropathy. Pain syndrome from injuries One of the less well-known uses of thermography is the diagnosis of pain conditions. If you have this difficult-to-identify syndrome, you might experience pain for six months or more after an accident. To properly treat sports injuries, sprains, inflamed tendons, and pain syndromes, thermography aids in their diagnosis. That’s all.
