Low-cost Noninvasive infrared thermal imaging system in the detection of Body injury

Abstract

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. The timely detection allows a survival of more than 5 years in most patients. This paper presents a Low-cost Noninvasive infrared thermal imaging system in that can be used to validate a potential damage not visible or in close future included in primary care for the detection of breast cancer. Thermography is one of the most recent noninvasive alternatives indicated to identify possible lesions that could indicate the early detection of breast abnormalities. In this work, a low-cost device is implemented using the measurement of infrared radiation by means of a thermal camera (thermography). The data obtained allowed to appreciate both qualitatively and quantitatively the presentation of anomalies.
