Thermal imaging as a tool for evaluating tumor treatment efficacy.Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in the Western world.  Thermography is a nonionizing, noninvasive, portable, and low-cost method that can be used in an outpatient clinic.  Thermography has been extensively studied as a breast cancer detection tool but was not used as a treatment monitoring tool.  The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of using thermal imaging as a feedback system to optimize radiation therapy.  Patients were imaged with a thermal camera prior and throughout the radiotherapy sessions.
