Research Behind Thermography - Part 2
623 women were divided into three groups:
Control group - 486 women - had normal examination, mammogram and thermogram
Test group 1 - had normal examination & mammogram but an ABNORMAL thermogram & family history of cancer
Test group 2 - had normal examination & mammogram but an ABNORMAL thermogram & no family history of cancer
These women were followed for ten years and here is the results
Only 3.9% of the control group developed breast cancer (the only group that had normal thermography)
35.8% of the first test group developed breast cancer
27.2% of the second test group developed breast cancer
So what logical conclusions can we make from this study?
There are two major conclusions to consider:
A family history of breast cancer increase risk of developing breast cancer by roughly 9%.
More importantly this study reveals that while other tests like mammograms are normal, an abnormal thermogram showed a significant amount of these women eventually developed breast cancer.
An abnormal thermogram is like getting an abnormal blood pressure reading.
If you have high blood pressure you are probably not worried about dropping dead the moment you first find out.
However, research shows that you are at a much higher risk of developing heart disease, stroke, etc. if you don't do anything about it.
An abnormal thermogram works in almost the exact same manner.
Most women with an abnormal thermogram don't currently have cancer but it reveals that left untreated they are at a significant risk in their lifetime of developing breast cancer.
There are certainly medical options that can help but in most cases we catch things so early that we can reverse this without drugs and surgeries.
