The inspection and palpation of the breast remains the basis of every breast examination. However, genuine early diagnosis of carcinoma of the breast cannot be achieved by clinical examinations without any supporting investigation. It must be borne in mind that such early diagnosis is the aim of every medical checkup for cancer. This fact has resulted in the development of novel examination methods employing suitable apparatus. The value of mammography is beyond dispute. Since it is the safest of all examination methods as far as accurate results are concerned, mammography makes a decisive contribution toward improving the success rate of early diagnostics. The present paper aims at emphasizing the value of thermography in diagnostics, especially in the early diagnosis of mastocarcinoma. Such a valuation becomes possibly by checking all thermographic findings with the help of mammography. As a result, it must be stated that both infrared thermography and plate thermography can only be additional examination methods in support of mammography in order to discover clinically occult carcinomas within the framework of preventive care examinations.
乳房的视诊和触诊仍然是每次乳房检查的基础。然而，没有任何辅助检查，仅通过临床检查无法真正实现乳腺癌的早期诊断。必须牢记，这种早期诊断是每次癌症医学检查的目标。这一事实导致了采用合适仪器的新型检查方法的发展。乳房X线摄影的价值毋庸置疑。就准确结果而言，它是所有检查方法中最安全的，乳房X线摄影对提高早期诊断成功率做出了决定性贡献。本文旨在强调热成像在诊断中的价值，尤其是在乳腺癌的早期诊断中。通过借助乳房X线摄影检查所有热成像结果，这种评估才有可能实现。因此，必须指出，红外热成像和平板热成像都只能作为辅助乳房X线摄影的检查方法，以便在预防性保健检查框架内发现临床隐匿性癌。
