Other “forms of” thermography. ( Excerpts from AICT website, (International Academy of Clinical Thermography))
Over the last few years many questionable thermographic procedures have emerged. The most dangerous aspect of some of these procedures is that women are being told that this type of testing is breast thermography. Only thermal imaging systems that meet minimum accepted standards are adequate for proper thermographic imaging of the breast. Those who are using these other forms of equipment or procedures, and informing the public that it is adequate for thermographic breast imaging, are placing women at risk. These practitioners are also damaging the reputation of board certified clinical thermographers who are providing a quality service to the community.

Thermography is not an alternative to mammography as a physiological testing method. Thermography is an adjacent (termed as such by FDA) and complimentary imaging technology.

Thermography cannot replace or be replaced by any other screening procedures either.
