	• DIGITAL BREAST THERMOGRAPHY SCREENING
	Now digitized, each point behavior is evaluated and compared to databases of Ideal Health.
	Seventy-five percent of women who get breast cancer have no family history of the disease. Mammography, although the digitized low-radiation devices are a step in the right direction, the new European Digitized Dynamic Breast Thermography device can be used with an 80% confidence level, with the additional ability of the device to see diseases as they are in their infant stages. (One study showed that followed 300 women 10 years after thermographic analysis, there was a 70% accuracy for predicting breast cancer up to 4 years before it was detected by mammography).

	• AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN BREAST CANCER PREVENTION
	Is there a hormone imbalance in your breasts?
	Since the single greatest risk factor for the development of breast cancer is lifetime exposure to estrogen, normalizing the balance of the hormones in the breast may be the first and most significant step in prevention. Breast thermography is the only known non-invasive procedure that can detect estrogen dominance in the breasts. If a woman's thermographic images suggest a relative progesterone deficiency (estrogen dominance), treatment of this condition may play an important role in prevention. With treatment from her doctor, a woman can use this information to balance the hormones in her breasts. Follow-up thermograms are compared to the baseline estrogen dominant images as part of the treatment monitoring process.

	• SENSITIVE NON-INVASIVE SCREENING FOR YOUNGER WOMEN
	Do you know that 23% of all breast cancers occur in women under 49?
	This is the most common cancer in women in this age group. Breast cancers in younger women are usually more aggressive and have poorer survival rates. Breast thermography offers younger women a sensitive non-invasive (no radiation and painless) addition to their regular breast health check-ups beginning with baseline screening at age 20. Breast thermography and mammography are complementary procedures, one test does not replace the other. Studies show that the earliest detection is realized when a multiple testing approach to screening is taken. This multimodal approach includes breast self-examinations, physical breast exams by a doctor, mammography, and thermography.
