2 Thermo scan- A Device for detection of Inflammatory Pain, Vascular Imaging and Breast Cancer detection.

3 Thermo scan Introduction 1)Thermo scan is a noninvasive diagnostic technique that allows the examiner to visualise and quantify changes in skin surface temperature. 2)Thermo scan clinical value is in its high sensitivity to pathology in the vascular, muscular, neural and skeletal systems and as such can contribute to the pathogenesis and diagnosis made by the clinician. 3)Thermo scan is a device that convert infrared radiation emitted from the skin surface into electrical impulses that are visualised in colour on a monitor. This visual image graphically maps the body temperature and is referred to as a thermogram. The spectrum of colours indicate an increase or decrease in the amount of infrared radiation being emitted from the body surface. Since there is a high degree of thermal symmetry in the normal body, subtle abnormal temperature asymmetry's can be easily identified.

4 Clinical Implications Early diagnosis of conditions like cancers Diagnosing and Imaging pain Diagnosing abnormal physiological processes due to diseases and injuries.

5 Potential Application areas Rheumatology Neurology Oncology Diabetes ( endocrinology) Radiology Orthopaedics Sports medicine Physiotherapy etc

7 Diabetic foot care Diabetic foot problem is the most common reason for patient admissions to hospital worldwide. Diabetic foot care is the most vital factor blood glucose control

8 With the help of Thermo scan of a Lesion or Wound we can easily find the stage of wound healing Stage 1: Inflammatory Phase Stage 2: Proliferative Phase Stage 3: Epithelisation Phase Stage 4: Remodeling

9 Specific disease with sample Images Ankle Sprain

10 Disc Prolapse

11 Osteoarthritis

12 Sympathetic nerve damage

13 Statistics of CRPS patients response to symapthectomy 49 (98%) out of the diagnosed 50 patients had significant decline in recurrent pains after CRPS treatment post thermographic diagnosis.

14 Breast Cancer

15 Statistics In our study of 100 cases with breast lumps, where pathological biopsy have been performed. 72 of then were confirmed to have cancer and among the 72, 69 were identified by thermoscan as having cancer hotspots above 1.5 degree centigrade yielding 96% sensitivity.
