While carrying out 10,000 breast thermographic studies we have examined 4,000 palpable lesions, 1,100 of which were verified cancers. The study of these cases according to our classification into 5 categories has shown that: (1) in the benign lesions, there were 18% equivocal results and 13% 'false positives', and (2) in the malignant diseases, there were 18% doubtful thermograms, 8.5% 'false negatives' and 10% 'false positives'. Thermography allowed us to detect 10 subclinical and 56 occult cancers; in another connection we have identified a growth phase in 11% of our cancers (fast-growth forms).
