​​​​​​​Infrared thermal imaging uses a non-contact camera to measure heat patterns on the surface of the body. Temperature changes can reflect inflammation, increased blood flow, or abnormal tissue activity, often before physical changes are visible.

 

• No radiation

• No compression

• Completely non-invasive

 

 

This method focuses on physiological activity, rather than structure.

Benefits for breast health

 

 

Breast cancer can trigger increased blood flow and inflammation, which may create detectable heat patterns. Thermal imaging can therefore:

 

• Highlight early changes

• Support ongoing monitoring

• Be safely repeated at any age

 

 

While not diagnostic on its own, it provides valuable early insight when used alongside other imaging methods.

 

 

 

Ultrasound imaging

 

 

Ultrasound uses sound waves to create detailed images of internal tissue. It is particularly useful for:

 

• Distinguishing cysts from solid masses

• Assessing dense breast tissue

• Clarifying areas of concern identified on other scans

 

 

Ultrasound is also non-invasive and involves no radiation.

 

 

 

The benefit of combining both methods

 

 

When used together:

 

• Thermal imaging identifies early functional changes

• Ultrasound provides clear structural confirmation

 

 

This combined approach improves accuracy and confidence, especially when reports are reviewed by qualified CQC-registered doctors, including:

 

• A qualified gynaecologist

• A musculoskeletal specialist, supporting assessment beyond breast health where inflammation or tissue stress is involved
