There is symmetry over the nipple area of both breasts, which are cooler (yellow and green colors). No asymmetrical hot patterns are noted in this region. Some patterns of thermal activity in the upper portion of the left breast in the axilla region. There are patterns of thermal intensity over the anterior chest, more pronounced in the clavicular areas. Legend:  red is hot, blue is cold.
Unusual thermal patterns in the subject's left breast (image right), mid portion in the upper quadrant and also in the lower quadrant, medial to the nipple area. Similar, less intensive patterns appear to be forming in the right breast (image left). Compare this image with the symmetrical aspect of the nipple region in the image above. BRENDA6. Note the increased thermal activity in the cervical region, more left than right with hot spots located over the mid sternum area. 
Significant thermal activity in the upper quadrant of the left breast (image right). Increased thermal activity on the left breast overall as compared to the right breast. Subject had confirmed problem with left breast based on mammography and biopsy. Image taken prior to mastectomy.
Same subject as image above, with arms raised above the head. Note consistency of thermal patterns associated with thermal intensity in the left breast. Cooler right breast, nipple region. 
Continuation of series of images of subject above. Left lateral view with left arm raised above the head. Note significant concentrated area of thermal activity in upper region of the breast. Compare with image below (right lateral).
Right lateral view of subject in above series. Cooler thermal zone in the nipple region. Fairly even thermal distribution over breast area. Expected increased thermal activity under the breast and in the axilla region. 
Significant increase in thermal asymmetry of the heat distribution over the anterior shoulder region, and the upper portion of the right breast. Slightly cooler yellow patterns appearing over the lateral part of the left breast as opposed to slightly greater thermal intensity on the right breast in the same region.
Increased thermal activity on the right breast, in the upper quadrant over the axillary of the right arm as opposed to the left axillary area. Subject is wearing a necklace with a pendant. Left nipple region is warmer than the right.
Relatively symmetrical breast patterns. Cooler green zones in both nipple regions. Slight elevation in thermal activity on left breast in this region as opposed to right. Significantly increased thermal activity in neck region, dominating the right shoulder.
