Providers at The Thermogram Center

The Thermogram Center evolution and providers:

The Thermogram Center was conceived by Tirza Derflinger in 2002. She had previously served as a Medical Laboratory Technician in the Army, obtained a B.S. in Industrial Engineering, and an M.B.A. in the Management of Technology. After working professionally for over 15 years, she had become dissatisfied… corporate work had become too impersonal and was no longer soulfully gratifying. At age 38, she left a six-figure income to return to her true calling of helping people in a health field and founded The Thermogram Center, Inc.

In 2005, she responded to the overwhelming question from clients, “what can I do about the potential risk factors observed in my thermal imaging?” by founding the Breast Health Education Group, made up of seven authors of “Better Breast Health – for Life!™”. Since then, Tirza serves as a Breast Health Educator & Facilitator by providing education to clients and workshops and lectures in the workplace, organizations, and the community.

Multiple individuals and entities are involved in providing thermal imaging that complies with the medical and business laws of Colorado and the nation. The credentials for the primary service providers to TTC are listed below.

Thermograms are 100% digital and can be electronically delivered (via protected server) with an individual’s health history information for analyses. The Thermogram Center obtains analyses and interpretive reporting through a California-based service provider with interpretive experience dating back to 1992 with dozens of thermal imaging centers across the U.S.
