Presenting Total Body Thermography
My name is Frances Nelson. I received my Bachelor of Arts in 1987 from Fordham University. I also obtained my training and certification from the American College of Clinical Thermography in Fort Meyers, Florida in 2009. I have been blessed in offering thermal imaging for 12 years and beyond now. I have been trained with the state of the art MED2000 Iris Infrared Clinical Camera which is the most advanced thermal imaging camera on the market as it utilizes Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) technology.
DITI has been recognized as a valuable diagnostic screening tool by the AMA Council of Scientific Affairs, the ACA Council on Diagnostic Imaging, the Congress of Neuro-Surgeons and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.
I have dedicated myself to educating others on the importance of having Thermography as a screening tool. When used adjunctively with Mammography and self exam studies have shown to increase the survival rate by 61%. I believe that the public, especially, women need to be informed about the its safety and efficacy. There are over 800 peer reviewed studies in the medical scientific literature that support Thermography.

Breast ThermographyBreast thermography is a diagnostic imaging procedure to aid in the early detection of breast cancer.
State-of-the-art breast thermography uses ultra-sensitive infrared cameras and sophisticated computers to detect, analyze, and produce high-resolution diagnostic images of these temperature and vascular changes.
Studies show that:
A positive infrared scan may indicate the presence of many different breast abnormalities such as mastitis, benign tumors, fibrocystic breast disease, cancer, and others.
Breast thermography's ability to detect a pre-cancerous state of the breast, or signs of cancer at an extremely early stage lies in its unique capability of monitoring the temperature variations and blood vessel alterations produced by the earliest changes in tissue physiology (function) (3,6,7,8,9).
The addition of breast thermography to the frontline of early breast cancer detection brings a great deal of good news for women. 1.

Tucker's StoryMy Grandmother had breast cancer - the fact that she had it puts me at a higher risk. When I felt a lump in my breast, I didn't want to deal with it and prayed that it would just 'go away.' God didn't make it disappear, but He did send me an angel. ![]() Call or Click |
