Breast Thermography

I'm going to be breast thermography and just wondered what the experience of others with this! Thank you!

Thermography, also called thermal imaging, has been studied for several decades. However, there is no evidence that breast thermography is an effective screening tool for early detection of breast cancer, according to the American Cancer Society.

Breast thermography is a way to detect differences in skin temperature at the surface of the breast using a special heat-sensing (infrared) camera. It is based on the theory that increases in surface temperature in areas of increased blood flow and metabolism, as in a tumor. Breast thermography is non-invasive and uses no radiation.

This technology is more effective in detecting tumors that are near the surface of the skin, but not tumors deeper in the chest. In addition, breast thermography is not sensitive enough to detect small cancers.

Breast thermography is not routinely used for the detection of breast cancer and should not be used in place of mammography. Scientists continue to study the usefulness of thermography for detection of breast cancer.

I had done several years ago. About 74 or 75.
At one point I was embarrassed, but I am old now and it does not matter. I had to go to a specialist hospital to have it because the mamogram could not do because of my tiny breasts.
It's like a sonogram.
