Comparing the Present to the Past - the Power of Comparisons & Looking Safely in a Timely Manner

This video show an actual report and the detail. That report is also below if you have no time to watch a video, as well as the Guide to Reading Report which goes into full explanation about each grade as well as more about the “pattern suggestive of hormonal activity” (estrogen dominance pattern, a.k.a. progesterone deficiency pattern).

This client had such a great first report that I would not have thought she had much to lose by skipping the recommended six month followup imaging since a high percentage of reports say everything is the same, for years in some cases. She did miss it, but only by 3 months and it showed TWO really important changes that she got to know about 3 months faster than had she waited for a full year. She had acquired the estrogen dominance pattern not present 9 months prior (page 3) and her left breast acquired a new signal at 2 o’clock around the areola, marked by an asterisk in the report page 3, also not present prior. She and her provider can take necessary steps to check estrogen/progesterone levels although a study suggested that estrogen levels in women’s breasts with breast cancer can be 50 times higher than in their blood, saliva or urine, suggesting that thermography may truly be the canary in the coal mine for signaling the extra heat/inflammation of estrogen in breasts.

Our reports give detail for each breast, its grade, whether the pattern suggestive of estrogen dominance is present, and if so if it has changed, any new hotter areas if found, and recommendations for you and your doctor.

One might think a follow up report should cost less but in fact we are lucky they don’t cost more because it is twice the work for the doctor to analyze changes between two sets of images vs. looking at only one set of images. Fast-food inferior thermography reports often omit the date of the comparison set because they aren’t comparing! This saves them time but may sabotage your health.
