Thermography Click here for more details and schedule.
Thermology is the study of human thermal physiology. Thermography or Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) is a15-minute non-invasive diagnostic test of physiology. DITI offers earlier detection of breast disease than has been possible through breast self examination, doctor examination or mammography alone. Did you know that by the time something is large enough to be detected via mammography it has been in your body 7-10 years. Take advantage of the early detection offered by Thermography.
This procedure is Non-invasive, safe, generates no radiation, painless, no contact with the body, offers early detection and is F.D.A. Approved. All women can benefit from DITI breast screening. However, it is especially appropriate for younger women (30-50) whose denser breast tissue makes it more difficult for mammography to be effective. Women with breast implants and women of all ages who for many reasons are unable to undergo routine mammography. This procedure is great for anyone wanting to lesson exposure to radiation who has had breast cancer and undergone previous chemo and/or radiation treatments.
DITI’s role in breast cancer and other breast disorders is to help in early detection and monitoring of abnormal physiology and the establishment of risk factors for the development or existence of cancer. When used with other procedures the best possible evaluation of breast health is made.

In addition to breast screening, full body scans or regions of interest (ie shoulder, knee, ankle, back, jaw) can be taken for detecting and monitoring a number of diseases and physical injuries by showing thermal abnormalities present in the body.
Clinical Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) is unique in its capability to show physiological change and metabolic processes. It provides the answers in the diagnosis of pain and is a very useful adjunctive procedure to other diagnostic tools.
X-Rays, C.T. Ultrasound and M.R.I. etc are all tests of 'anatomy' that measure the structures of your body. DITI is unique in its capability to show physiological change and metabolic processes. Thermography is very cost effective, risk free and provides instant images.
Thermography fees for breast screening are $150 for the initial scan and $150 for the
3-month follow-up. The 3-month follow-up is required for only breast screening to determine a normal base line of your bodies blood vasculature structure. A full-body scan is $350. One area of interest (ie shoulder, knee, back, sinus) is $150 with $50 for each additional area. Payment for this service will be by check or cash only.
Dr. Maria Belluccio, Doctor of Oriental Medicine, Acupuncture Physician will be providing this service in my office once every three months. This is a phenomenal opportunity you won’t want to miss.

Remember the life you help to save may be your own.
Many blessings,
