DITI (Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging)

This 15-minute procedure is totally non-invasive. No contact with the body of any kind and no radiation. This procedure is used to detect and monitor many diseases and injuries including:

Back Injuries Arthritis Nerve Damage Unexplained Pain Artery Inflammation Vascular Disease Breast Disease Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Disc Disease Inflammatory Pain Skin Cancer Referred Pain Syndrome Sprain/Strain Stroke Screening Whiplash Digestive Disorders

Thermograms are the only method available for visualizing pain and pathology and provide instant images. Unlike X-Ray, C.T. Ultrasound and MRI, the Thermogram shows physiological change and metabolic processes. The Thermogram is extremely helpful in scanning for cancer. Cancers need nutrients to maintain or accelerate growth in their early stages. This causes inactive blood vessels to be activated and new ones to be formed through a process that is called neoangiogenesis. Along with these changes comes an increase in the surface temperature in the affected regions. Heat indicates that inflammation exists and it has been shown that precancerous and cancerous cells cause inflammation. This can be viewed with Thermography through infrared imaging; the newly formed and activated blood vessels have a distinct appearance on the scan. It has been proven that the breast cancer gene is not as important an indicator of future cancer risk as an abnormal thermal screening. There are studies that suggest that this test can detect activity sometimes before the formation of the tumor, as much as 8 to 10 years before other tests. Simply put: Early detection saves lives.
