On Breast Thermogram
Over 800 peer-reviewed studies on
thermography exist in the index-medicus literature.
Strict standardized interpretation protocols have been
established for over 15 years.
For instance, radiography and ultrasonography refer to
anatomy. Thermography, however, is based on
thermodynamics and thermokinetics, which are unfamiliar
to most physicians, though man is experiencing heat
production and exchange in every situation he undergoes
or creates.
Considering the contribution that thermography has
demonstrated thus far in the field of early cancer
detection, all possibilities should be considered for
promoting further technical, biological, and clinical
research in this procedure.
