Some considerations on the diagnosis of breast cancer by thermography in patients with nonpalpable breast cancer

26 patients with nonpalpable breast cancer were examined by thermography. 15 patients (55%) were correctly diagnosed by thermography at steady state, 4 patients (14%) were correctly diagnosed by the aid of dynamic thermography and 3 patients (11%) were correctly diagnosed by the aid of /spl mu/-thermography. Background of diagnosis of small cancer by thermography at steady state as well as dynamic and /spl mu/-thermography was studied.
