Figure 2

Depiction of IRI image capture setup with (a) illustrating the IR camera position relative to the body and (b) example IR images of a patient's left breast associated with the position number. All images are taken clockwise starting at the head of the patient with the camera tilted upwards at a tilt angle of 25° giving access to the chest wall in addition to the breast surface. Hot spots and breast vascular regions are captured in the IR images. The hotspot shows up in views 1, 7, and 8. Vascular regions are more prominent in views 1–4.
