Angiogenesis a Hallmark of Cancer

• Microscopic Size Tumours present all the time• No blood supply - no nutrients, cannot get any bigger• Autopsy studies 80% of 80 y have DCIS• 40% women age 40-50 have microscopic tumours in the breast• 50% men 50 y have microscopic tumours in the prostate• Close to 100% of all of us have microscopic tumours in thyroid by age 70

Breast Thermography• Breast thermography is a great option for women of all ages and shapes

including younger women who may have dense breast tissue, women with fibrocystic breasts, and even women with implants

• Thermography is non-invasive, radiation free and 100% safe

• When thermography is used along with clinical examination and mammography, 95% of early stage cancers may be detected

• The advantages of early assessment of risk factors could be life-saving
