Lordy. Sorry this is making the rounds in the veterinary world! I wrote about the long history of human thermography last October. So sad to see people waste their money.

I was on a jury a few years back, a plaintiff suing a medical device manufacturer, and was surprised to find out how loosely regulated some medical devices ( for humans) are.

Yes, it is probably more lax than would be ideal, at least it's something :/

Excellent presentation, thanks for the evidence and nuance as always. Good for folks to read before opening their wallets via the heart.

For sure! It bewilders me that our profession accepts such a lax regulatory environment, and it certainly invites opportunists who see dollar signs in their eyes and a quick path to sales without the long road of FDA approval... I could say similar things about many of the diagnostic AI companies popping up, and perhaps will write about those in a future post!
