Full Body Screening

Full Body Imaging

This thermal imaging series consists of 28 images and includes the head & neck, thyroid region, breast (chest for males), abdomen, upper & lower back, and all extremities. Optional testicular screening for men.

Thermography aids in the assessment of various dysfunctions, diseases, and other concerns to include:

  • Deep Vein Thrombosis

  • Gout

  • Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in one or more of the deep veins in the body, usually occurring in the legs. DVT can cause leg pain or swelling but also can occur with no symptoms. DVT can be very serious, if undetected, blood clots in the veins can break loose, travel through the bloodstream and lodge in the lungs, blocking blood flow (pulmonary embolism).

Deep Vein Thrombosis

Early detection of DVT is critical to prevent a pulmonary embolism. However, most conventional methods for diagnosing DVT are functionally limited and complicated.

Thermography is an effective screening tool for DVT due to its convenience, rapid response, and high sensitivity.

Gout

Gout is a common and complex form of arthritis, caused by inflammation. It is characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain, swelling, redness and tenderness in the joints, often found in the joint at the base of the big toe.

Measurement of skin temperature is utilized to assess localized or regional inflammation. Thermography has been found to be a valuable aid, being both precise and accurate.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a condition whereby symptoms are produced from compression of nerves or blood vessels, or both, because of an inadequate passageway through an area between the base of the neck and the upper chest area known as the thoracic outlet. This compression can cause pain in the shoulders, neck, arms or hands. The impaired circulation to the extremities causes discoloration, numbness and tingling in the fingers.

Chronic kidney disease, also called chronic kidney failure, describes the gradual loss of kidney function. In the early stages of chronic kidney disease, few signs or symptoms may be present. Chronic kidney disease may not become apparent until the kidney function is significantly impaired.
