ABSTRACT:
A differential temperature sensor device is provided for detecting differential temperatures in a human breast. A pad having a contoured design is covered with an adhesive layer having differing release forces on its two sides to insure sustained contact between the breast and temperature sensors and to ease removal after use. Temperature sensors are arranged in a useful pattern and covered with a silicon lidding which is removed prior to use. The device is especially useful for the detection of breast cancer and breast disease.
