Why Thermal Imaging Might Be Your Best Ally with Dr. Robert Kane

In this episode of Soma Says, host Dr. Soma Mandal, newly appointed Medical Director of Women’s Health at Hackensack Meridian Health, shares exciting updates about her new role at Jersey Shore University Medical Center and the mission to advance comprehensive, compassionate women’s care.

Joining Dr. Soma is Dr. Robert Kane, CEO of Kane Thermal Imaging, for a fascinating look into how thermal imaging technology is transforming medicine. Together, they explore the science behind this non-invasive diagnostic tool and its diverse applications — from early breast cancer detection and chronic pain management to sports performance and hormonal health.

Dr. Kane explains how thermal imaging captures subtle temperature changes to identify inflammation, vascular issues, and physiological patterns before they become disease, highlighting its potential as a complementary tool to traditional diagnostics.
