Thermography...Leading-edge technology that identifies problems before they happen

Thermography or Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging is a radiation-free, no-contact, pain-free, non-invasive, FDA-approved and relatively inexpensive screening tool for early detection of physiological changes in tissue.

Over thirty years of clinical use and more than 8,000 peer-reviewed studies in the medical literature have established thermography as a safe and effect means to examine the human body. Commonly used throughout Canada and Europe, thermography is an invaluable tool in the prevention of disease at Longevity Healthcare

Full Body thermography has shown to be helpful in the diagnosis of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, thyroid, kidney, liver and other metabolic conditions as well as vascular disorders, pain syndromes, and soft tissue disorders.

Breast Health

Thermography has many potential clinical applications and has been studied in the breast cancer context since the early 1960's. Thermography detects subtle physiological changes that accompany the development of breast disease. Research has shown thermography to be effective in identifying changes in the tissue 5-8 years prior to the development of a tumor. This early detection affords a woman time to make lifestyle changes and pursue other less invasive treatments in her return to health.

Thermography is safe and appropriate for any women, regardless of age and is particularly valuable for women with dense breasts, implants and prior surgeries. It is also an effective screening tool for women with a history of breast cancer in their family, women who have been on the pill or hormone replacement therapy.

"We have been impressed with the success of thermography to identify our patient's potential risk for disease and monitor their return to health with the use of integrative medicine."
