Initial appointments last about 60-75 minutes. Total imaging time for breasts is about 10-20 minutes. Total imaging time for full-body scans lasts about 60 minutes. Length of appointment is dependent on region of interest. Please note you will need a period of about 15 min to acclimate “cool down” to the room prior to imaging. During this time your thermographer can complete your intake questionnaire.

Prior to your thermography session, you will have already completed a questionnaire, you can bring this in on the day of imaging where your thermographer will review your medical history. You will be asked to change into a gown. For breast scans, you will be required to remove your gown from the waist up during the imaging portion only. For a full-body scan, you will be required to remove your gown and only wear bottom underwear during the imagining portion. You change in and out of your gown in privacy.  

Most scanning imaging is done in a seated position. There is standing and turning for half-body and full-body images. If you have any questions or concerns, please speak with your technician to discuss any accommodations. You WILL NOT be confined in tight spaces or be required to lay on a table with a technician pressing or moving a scanning device on your body. After your appointment, the technician will send the complete medical report and images to EMI (Electronic Medical Interpretation) system for analysis and interpretation. We will provide you with a copy of your report and provide copies to providers of your choosing. This will allow you to review your findings with a physician of your choosing. For further clarification of your report you can request a complementary 15 min consultation with Dr. Elisabete Cruz ND.
