Recently, the United States food and drug administration informed that doctors cann’t use outside thermal imaging technology replace  breast X-ray photography.

Breast X-ray photography adopt x-ray to illuminate breast. It is different from that thermal imaging technology display the heat and blood flow mode in body surface or nearby by generating a infrared image. Some medical institutions said that thermal imaging technology is better than Mammography X-ray Machine as breast cancer screening tool because it doesn’t need radiation exposure or extrusion breast.

But  the United States FDA doesn’t have any effective scientific evidence to prove that thermal fingure imaging can check breast cancer when it used alone. So far, FDA don’t approve any a thermal imaging equipment be used for breast cancer screening or diagnosis.

The United States FDA expressed clearly that thermal imaging equipment can only used for auxiliary diagnostic tool of breast cancer screening and diagnostic.

FDA sid that Mammography X-ray Machine is still the most effective screening method and thermal imaging equipment cann’t be used as independent method of breast cancer screening or diagnosis.
