Medical DITI

Thermography Exams

Region of Specific Interest

Medical DITI can be done in a region of the body in which the patient or practitioner has specific interest or concern.  This type of exam can be done to monitor a patient's treatment or prognosis of a diagnosis. Region of interest scans are also helpful in acute and chronic injury examination in a localized area.  When a patient is already current on their full body thermogram but would like to investigate an area of pain or dysfunction, they might opt for a region of interest exam to reduce costs.
