When Bal Gill, 41, saw a thermal image of her body, she noticed a suspicious patch of red in her left breast. Her doctor later confirmed she had breast cancer.
When Gill was flipping through her vacation photos after returning home, she stumbled upon the picture again. After some online research on thermal imaging, Gill made a doctor's appointment, where she was ultimately diagnosed with breast cancer.
Gill said that the disease is in"really early stages" and that he has had two operations, with another one coming up, to prevent the spread of the cancer. "We have a technology that is tried and true in saving women from breast cancer, and thermography is not that technology," Brem told NBC News."Mammography is the only imaging modality that has demonstrated an unequivocal and remarkable reduction in the death rate of breast cancer."
"We have to practice research-based and data-based medicine, and there is no data for thermography," Brem said."You have to keep perspective. It’s one [case]. How many cancers does infrared miss? The answer is we don’t know."

Paramedics Didn’t Realize How Hard It Would Be To Cut Drunk Woman Out Of Elmo CostumeCLEVELAND—Finding themselves hopelessly out of their depth despite years of training in emergency field medicine, a local team of paramedics told reporters Wednesday that they had no idea how difficult it would be to cut a dangerously drunk woman out of an Elmo costume. “Good God, how did she even breathe in this thing? There was almost no ventilation even before the vomiting started, and this head alone must weigh 20 pounds,” said veteran EMT Alex Iglesias, marveling at the costume’s extremely constrictive polyester-resin design, which was then layered with a thick, red furry material of some unknown origin that seemed designed to dull medical shears. “Of course the fucking zipper got stuck, and the fabric is too thick to get a needle through. Not only that, but she also used several layers of duct tape around the interior of the neck to keep the head from falling off, so I don’t know how we’re supposed to intubate her. We may have to use the actual Jaws of Life to get her out of there if she doesn’t stop flailing and asking us if we know where her friends went.” Iglesias and his team also say they have “no earthly idea” how the woman managed to get the liquor bottles into the costume with her.

Saturday Night Social: Cinderblock Will Not Be HurriedI once read an article in a women’s magazine in which the author lamented that most of us have two speeds: completely sedentary or racing in place on gym equipment, running from a sense of guilt over having sat for so long. I don’t really remember what the ultimate point of the article was, but my takeaway was this: running sucks and meandering is great.
