Thermography Scans
What is Infrared Imaging?

It is used as an aid for diagnosis and prognosis, as well as monitoring therapy progress, for conditions and injuries, including:

Images or 'Thermograms' can be taken of the whole body or just area being investigated. The digitized images are stored on a computer and are sent electronically to a Thermologist (certified doctor) for interpretation and reporting. Your report is color printed and a copy can also be sent to your healthcare professional.
Procedure
Unlike most diagnostic tests D.I.T.I. is:
- Non invasive
- No radiation
- Painless
- No contact with the body
- F.D.A. registered
This quick and easy test starts with your medical history being taken before you partially disrobe for the scanning to be performed. Standard region of interest exams take approximately 15 minutes and a full body 30 minutes. Your printed report is normally completed within a few days.
