Question about thermography...

Has anyone had an experience, positive or negative with this procedure?

Thermography is an experimental and unproven technology.
It should not be used instead of MRI or mammogram.
Sounds like it may catch cancer earlier, but the reliability, rate of false positive tests etc, is not yet known.

Here is the quote from the american cancer society.

Thermography (thermal imaging)
Thermography is a way to measure and map the heat on the surface of the breast using a special heat-sensing camera. It is based on the idea that the temperature rises in areas with increased blood flow and metabolism, which could be a sign of a tumor.
Thermography has been around for many years, and some scientists are still trying to improve the technology to use it in breast imaging. But no study has ever shown that it is an effective screening tool for finding breast cancer early. It should not be used as a substitute for mammograms.
Newer versions of this test are better able to find very small temperature differences. They may prove to be more accurate than older versions, and are now being studied to find out if they might be useful in finding cancer.

I don't know anyone who's had thermography but a doctor friend of mine had posted the comments above and so I'm just sharing information from her.
