What it is and what it isn't!
Thermography does a different job to diagnostic methods such as ultrasound, X-ray or MRI; the latter all of which test and reveal the actual state of structure and anatomy. These diagnostics are necessary to reveal the nature and degree of breakdown that has already occurred in tissue. Thermography pinpoints the WHERE; it reveals the physiology of tissue as it is occurring now; the source of the greatest activity. It can succinctly and directly show which specific area needs further investigation. It has a primary role in locating the whereabouts of a problem area as well as the activity in the problem area.

Remain mindful that we are imaging for the differences in heat variations so we must minimise any possibility of creating false readings because of rogue temperature interferences.
