We've got the answers for your questions

What is half-body scan thermography?

Half-body scan thermography, also known as Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) for specific body areas, is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that captures infrared heat images from either the upper or lower half of the body. This technique provides a visual map of the body's thermal patterns in the targeted area, offering insights into physiological changes that could indicate inflammation, pain, or potential health issues.

What can I expect from my half-body thermogram?

During a thermography procedure, you'll be asked to undress the area of interest and acclimate to the room's temperature. A thermographic camera then captures images of the skin's surface temperature without making physical contact. The entire process typically takes 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the areas being examined.

Is half-body thermography safe?

Yes, thermography is completely safe. It is a non-invasive, contact-free method that does not involve radiation, making it suitable for frequent use and for all patients, including those who are pregnant or have medical implants.

What can half-body thermography detect?

Thermography can detect conditions related to abnormal thermal patterns such as inflammatory processes, circulatory issues, and other abnormalities in the specific area of the body being examined.

Thermography can also assist in the detection and management of various conditions, including arthritis, neck and back pain, nerve damage, fibromyalgia, reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), dental issues, and vascular and musculoskeletal disorders.

How often should I get a half-body thermography scan?

The frequency of scans depends on individual health needs and concerns specific to the body region. Your healthcare provider can help determine an appropriate schedule. Annual scans are common for monitoring health or evaluating the progress of treatment plans.

Is half-body thermography covered by insurance?

Coverage for thermography varies by insurance provider and policy. Consult your individual insurance provider to better understand your coverage specifics. While we don't engage in billing or insurance claim assistance, a detailed receipt will be provided for your filing purposes.

While some insurance plans may not cover the cost of thermography screenings, many patients find the benefits outweigh the out-of-pocket cost.

Do I need a doctor's referral or order for a thermography scan?

No, anyone is welcome to schedule an appointment without referral. However, if your insurance covers Thermographic services and you wish to file an insurance claim, having a doctor's order can be beneficial. Please consult your individual insurance provide for requirements and coverage.

How can half-body thermography help athletes?

Athletes focusing on specific regions due to their sports discipline can use half-body thermography to identify areas of potential inflammation or strain. This helps in taking preventative measures against overuse or injury.

Remember, while thermography is a valuable tool in preventive health and diagnostic procedures, it should be used in conjunction with other medical evaluations. Always consult with your healthcare provider to assess your health comprehensively.

Can thermography replace other diagnostic methods?

While thermography provides unique insights by showcasing physiological and metabolic changes, it is best used in conjunction with other diagnostic methods like X-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, and MRIs. It provides additional information that anatomical imaging cannot, particularly relating to the function and inflammation.

How does thermography help in managing pain?

Thermography helps identify the source of pain by visualizing areas of increased or decreased temperature on the skin's surface, which correspond to underlying inflammation, poor blood flow, or other pain-related conditions. This can guide healthcare professionals in tailoring the most appropriate treatment plans.
