Mission Statement: Thermographic Diagnostic Imaging
To provide superior quality infra-red imaging of the breast and neuromuscular systems as well as the face and thyroid to assist in the early diagnosis of problems associated with these areas. TDI strictly adheres to protocols of the world wide thermographic community. All images are taken in controlled environments with special attention to temperature and ambient light. All thermographic studies are performed by Liesha Getson. As a part of patient centered approach all abnormal reports are followed up with a phone conference with Dr. Getson at which time the images are reviewed and recommendations made. These may include further diagnostic tests as well nutritional and dietary counseling, detoxification and other approaches to health including kinesiology using the Quantum Reflex Analysis testing method. We utilize the MHS 7000 infra-red camera which is the only FDA approved unit expressly designed for medical applications. It should be noted that in 1982 the FDA approved breast thermography as an adjunctive diagnostic breast screening procedure.
