Welcome to Sentinel BreastScan, a revolutionary non-invasive procedure that can help detect signs of breast cancer up to 10 years in advance.

As part of an annual screening routine, Sentinel BreastScan accurately measures infrared energy emitted by the body, and analyzes the test data to develop an individual Breast Health Profile.

This is significant, because unlike other screening methods; mammography, MRI, ultrasound & clinical breast exams which can only detect tumors of sufficient size, Sentinel BreastScan detects physiological changes that may be the first indicators of the earliest stages of disease development.

The infrared imaging technology behind Sentinel BreastScan has been documented as an effective tool to detect angiogenesis and vascular asymmetry.

Angiogenesis is when blood vessels form to supply cells that are not part of normal growth. These vessels develop apart from the normal blood supply and are independent of the autonomic nervous system—the mechanism that controls blood flow, heart rate, breathing and other functions of the body.

Vascular asymmetry is when the blood supply to right and left breasts are dissimilar and an indicator of possible angiogenesis and other physiological differences between the breasts.

During a Sentinel BreastScan, the breasts are lightly cooled with a soft breeze. The computer identifies areas that do not react normally to the cooling stimulus. This may indicate angiogenesis, high metabolism or high blood perfusion, and can be areas where a cancer may be found.
