The Thermography Imaging procedure
consists of three simple steps:
Step1) Preparation – prior to your office visit you will be asked to read and follow the Pre-Examination Instructions and complete the Breast History Form.
Step 2) Equilibration – during the office visit examination you will be disrobed from the waist up for both imaging and to allow for the surface temperature of the body to equilibrate with the room. You will sit with your arms placed in elevated arm rests and away from your body for 20 minutes.
Step 3) Imaging – once equilibrated the female technician will take three (3) camera shots from approximately 4 feet away. (One frontal and two slightly angled shots) To be sure they pictures are clear and accurate the technician will download them before asking you to dress. Once the pictures have been confirmed the exam is completed and the images are sent to Breast Thermography Evaluation.
