The reality is ALL women face the threat of breast cancer. Current statistics show that one-in-eight American women will be diagnosed with the disease in her lifetime.
For over thirty years we have been told that an annual mammography examination is the key to long-term survival from breast cancer. Yet, after thirty years there has been no significant improvement in mortality.
Why? There are several reasons:
1. Mammography is NOT capable of detecting breast cancer early enough, when it can be easily treated. Generally a tumor is first detected by a mammogram when it’s about 2.5 cm (the size of a dime). At this stage it has been growing for at least 8 years.
2. One other very important piece of information we don’t hear about is that exposure to the X-Rays used in mammography is reported to actually increase the risk of developing breast cancer.
“Mammography’s so-called low-dose radiation may increase the risk of breast cancer”
— International Journal of Cancer
3. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) puts the false negative rate at 40% among women ages 40 to 49. National Institute of Health spokespeople state that mammograms miss 10% of malignant tumors in women over 50. Mammography’s error rate is unacceptable.
4. Mammography’s Misleading Results: In a clinical study of 60,000 women, 70% of the tumors detected by screening mammography weren’t tumors at all. In addition to the financial and emotional strains resulting from these false positives, they may also lead to many unnecessary and invasive biopsies. In fact, biopsies in 70% to 80% of all positive mammograms do not show any presence of cancer.
The good news is Thermography gives you a fighting chance by detecting cancer in it’s earlier stages 8 to 10 years before a mammogram!
Fortunately, you have a much better option than mammography. This alternative, called Breast Thermography, is safe, accurate, and approved by the FDA.
It’s successfully used throughout the world to detect signs of breast cancer up to 10 years before the cancer is detectable using mammography – without the intense pain, errors, and exposure to harmful radiation.
Breast thermography has an average accuracy of 90%, and research shows that it can significantly improve long-term survival rates.
According to a report in the American Journal of Radiology, breast thermography has:
* 99% sensitivity
* 90% specificity
* 90 % accuracy
in detecting breast cancer in women under age 55
There is no other screening method that has as high of efficacy as breast thermography. The sensitivity for physical breast examinations (feeling for lumps) is 18%, mammography is 70% and MRI is 71%.
Why haven’t you heard of breast thermography?
If you haven’t heard of breast thermography, it’s because this proven technology has been thwarted by the multi-billion dollar American mammography industry. For over 30 years, it has conducted a successful campaign that has suppressed this life saving technology – at the expense of American women. Breast thermography’s outstanding accuracy is proven, while mammography’s screening failure and drawbacks are widely known. But, mammography is still promoted while breast thermography is discouraged. Explanation: It’s all about money!
A financial empire has developed around mammography screening. In fact, if every woman were to follow American Cancer Society’s guidelines for mammography screening, the annual revenue to the mammography industry would exceed $5 billion.
Even though experts report in the most prestigious medical journal that…
“Screening for breast cancer with mammography is unjustified…the data shows that for every 1000 women screened biannually throughout 12 years, one breast-cancer death is avoided whereas the total number of deaths is increased by six…there is no reliable evidence that screening decreases breast-cancer mortality.”
– The Lancet, One of the oldest and most
respected medical journals in the world
Reputable medical professionals have repeatedly reported in the most respected medical journals that mammography screening to detect early breast cancers is inaccurate, ineffective, and its X-rays are harmful to a woman’s health.
The benefits are minimal, at best, but the hazard to women’s health is enormous. In fact, since mammography screening was introduced in the early 1970’s, the incidence of ductal carcinoma in situ has increased by 328%, 200% of which is due to mammography.
Is it accurate?
Yes, as a routine screening tool, it has been shown to be 97% effective at detecting benign vs malignant breast abnormalities. Another study tracked 1537 women with abnormal thermograms for 12 years. They had normal mammograms and physical exams. Within 5 years, 40% of the women developed malignancies. The researchers commented "an abnormal thermogram is the single most important marker of high risk for the future development of breast cancer" These results have been repeated over and over again for nearly 30 years.
Is It Safe?
While a variety of studies have called into question the safety of cumulative exposures to radiation, Radiation is actually really bad for us and can cause cancer cells to grow. However, this is not the case with Thermography. Thermography emits nothing, it only takes an image. Nothing touches you and it is quick and painless. This all makes Thermography great for frequent screening with no chance of danger.
Who Reads the Images?
The images are sent via secured server to medical doctor interpreters who are trained in the protocols of reading Thermography. A very formal interpretation is made and sent to us where we will review the results and make suggestions or referrals if necessary. You are given a copy of the report and frequently we send copies of the reports to physicians for their records. You can keep your copies for years and years to compare your health history for the rest of your life. This means that you can watch to see if a tumor is growing or shrinking. Since there is no RADIATION this method is safe to use everyday.
What If I get Abnormal Results? What Do I Do?
Thermography is not diagnostic but gives early risk factors. This is great news because an abnormal result from a thermogram often buys time so that natural interventions such as herbs, supplements and lifestyle changes can influence the outcome. At the least, the condition can be closely monitored safely until conventional interventions need to be applied. It is important to recognize that early detection is the key to a good outcome. Remember, if it were not for thermography, this abnormality would have continued to grow for up to 10 years until you can actually feel the lump.
How deep does the camera see?
Thermal imaging can only see the surface of the skin, however the autonomic nervous system controls the blood flow to the skin and so this will reflect the state of the tissues under the skin.
So, while saying that "thermography only sees the first millimeters of depth" is technically true, it misses the physiological response that controls the temperature at the surface. Just as someone turning red with embarrassment is an autonomic response to an emotional reaction, the changes seen with thermography are an autonomic response to the tissues underneath.

Excerpts from Summary of Studies and Reports on Thermal Imaging
– The Biomedical Handbook
“1982 FDA approved Thermography as an adjunctive Breast screening procedure. Breast Thermography has the ability to detect the first signs of a tumor that may be forming up to 10 years before other procedures can detect it.
– National Cancer Institute
“Thermography’s digital infrared imaging can detect the increase in regional breast temperatures resulting from measured blood vessel activity in both pre cancerous tissue and the area surrounding a developing breast cancer.”
– The Lancet
“Screening for breast cancer with mammography is unjustified…the data show that for every 1000 women screened biennially throughout 12 years, one breast-cancer death is avoided whereas the total number of deaths is increased by six…there is no reliable evidence that screening decreases breast-cancer mortality.”
– 2003 issue of AMA journal, American Medical News.
“There is little evidence documenting that mammography saves lives from breast cancer for premenopausal women.”
