Woman spots breast cancer while playing with thermal camera at Scots
tourist spot

A woman discovered she has breast cancer after spotting an unusual
heat coming from her chest on a thermal imaging camera at an
Edinburgh tourist attraction.

Bal Gill was at Camera Obscura & World of Illusions in May with her
family and took a photo of the thermal image having noticed a red
heat patch radiating from her left breast.

Thinking the uneven heat was "odd" compared to other people, the
41-year-old carried out an internet search on thermal imaging cameras
and found out they can be used by oncologists to help diagnose
cancers.

Yes, saw that.

I can recommend that Camera Obscura; been several times. The
exhibitions on the way up and down (interactive as in the above) are
good fun.
It doesn't say above (but it does in the link), but it's at the top of
the Royal Mile in Edinburgh.

Less well known is the Camera Obscura (not much else, but a lovely
building) in Portslade, near Brighton. But phone first as it's run by
volunteers.



Thanks for the recommendation Bob, I live fairly local to that and have
thought of visiting more than once...

I grew up in Brighton but it wasn't there then. I visit quite a bit, and
one of my former student has a large shop in {Boundary,Station} Road. So
I popped into the Foredown Tower. Dead lucky because they'd just started
a presentation and were willing to start it again!
