[Telethermographic follow-up of breast cancers treated by radiotherapy]

The study of 635 breast cancers before and after radical radiation therapy, allows us to define 4 different ways of evolution: progressive linear cooling or sterilization, persistent thermal abnormalities or non-sterilization, relighting following a cooling phase or recurrence, persistent tepid breasts, meaning a radiation sequela (radiotherapic breast). We must emphasize that telethermography allows us to define the opportunity and timing of secondary surgery.
