The evolving role of the dynamic thermal analysis in the early detection of breast cancer. M Salhab, W Al Sarakbi and K Mokbel.
"Dynamic thermal analysis of the breast is a safe, non invasive approach that seems to be sensitive for the early detection of breast cancer especially in young women where the conventional mammography is of limited value. Such a technology could become the initial breast screening test in pre-menopausal women and those who are classified as positive can then be selected for anatomical imaging with mammography, MRI and/or ultrasonography." - click here for the full article.

A review of thermography as promising non-invasive detection modality for breast tumor. E.Y.-K. Ng
"From the last 1.5 decades of complying with the strict standardized thermogram interpretation protocols by proper infrared trained personnel as documented in literature, breast thermography has achieved an average sensitivity and specificity of 90%. An abnormal thermogram is reported as the significant biological risk marker for the existence of or continues development of breast tumor." - click here to launch a PDF version of the full article.
