[Active thermography in the diagnosis of breast cancer].

Three procedures of active thermography were used in examination of 1301 patients with stage I-III breast tumors. The evaluation of their diagnostic effectiveness established their evident advantages over any method of passive thermography. Application of active procedures increased diagnostic accuracy by 9-15% and decreased the number of false negative results by 4-10%.
