Original Toronto Star caption: Early detection tool: A doctor examines a woman with the use of thermography, which measures the heat of the skin in the breast and looks for hot spots or tumors. Such treatment is becoming more and more controversial. The Canadian Cancer Society recommends monthly breast self-examination and a major study is under way to determine the feasibility of annual mammography. But others suggests such x-rays provide harmful radiation.
