The TDI Mission
Since 1982, Thermographic Diagnostic Imaging has had one job: capture the body’s thermal patterns with medical-grade discipline, interpret them honestly, and put that information to work in our patients’ healthcare conversations. Four decades in, we remain one of the longest-standing thermography practices in the country – and the standards that got us here have not loosened.
Our Story
TDI was founded by Philip Getson, D.O., a New Jersey osteopathic physician who saw early what thermal imaging could add to clinical practice – and what it would take to do it credibly. He built the practice on physician-grade protocols, earned certification from four thermographic boards, served as Vice President of the American Academy of Thermology, chaired its breast protocol committee, and personally reviewed more than 50,000 thermographic studies of the breast, thyroid, dental, and neuromuscular systems. Breast thermography is adjunctive and does not replace mammography or other breast screening or diagnostic imaging recommended by a healthcare provider. When thermography’s place in medicine was challenged in New Jersey, Dr. Getson carried the fight for ten years to the State Supreme Court – and won a unanimous ruling that thermography was a reasonable and necessary medical expense under state motor vehicle law.
In July 2024, Dr. Getson entrusted the reporting role to Alexander Mostovoy, DHMS, BCCT – a clinical thermologist with more than 25 years of experience and founder of Thermography Clinic Inc. in Toronto – joining two of North America’s most experienced thermography practices under shared protocols.
Our Clinical Approach
A thermogram is only as trustworthy as its technique. Our studies are captured in temperature-controlled rooms after proper acclimation, in standardized views, with regions of interest marked for precise, repeatable measurement – including thermal stress testing when the protocol calls for it. Images are captured by board-certified technicians, and every study is interpreted by a Board-Certified Clinical Thermologist.
We are equally disciplined about what our reports claim. Thermography is adjunctive physiological imaging: it documents heat and vascular patterns for your healthcare provider to correlate, and breast thermography complements mammography rather than competing with it. Patients trust us because we treat those boundaries as part of the service – the information we give you is information you can actually use.
Our services: Breast Thermography, Facial-Thyroid-Dental, Upper Body, Lower Body, Full Body, and Pain/Neuromuscular studies, in Marlton and at satellite locations across four states.
