How bioimpedance and thermography unlock earlier health insights

At PhantomOmics, we’re building a future where health problems are spotted earlier. Before they require long-term treatment, time off work, or a decline in performance. That future is grounded in real science.
A 2023 study published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine explored how two powerful tools, bioimpedance analysis and infrared thermography, can be combined to assess tissue health and body composition without radiation or invasive procedures.
The researchers found that when electrical signals (used in bioimpedance) are combined with thermal imaging, clinicians gain a clearer picture of inflammation, circulation, hydration and even muscular asymmetries. In short, it’s a way to detect subtle imbalances in the body. Before they become injuries or illnesses.
This approach has huge implications for proactive care.
At PhantomOmics, we’ve taken these findings and built them into a single, fast, and fully non-invasive scan. Our system pairs bioimpedance with thermal data to help identify:
Early signs of repetitive strain or overuse injuries
Recovery delays after training or physical stress
Tissue-level changes that may signal inflammation
Asymmetries that could lead to long-term imbalance
Because the scan is quick and non-invasive, it can be repeated regularly. Making it ideal for use in clinics, athletic facilities, workplaces and eldercare settings. And because the insights are clear, clinicians and clients alike can make decisions sooner.
We believe that by shifting the focus from diagnosis to early detection, we can help people stay healthier, perform better, and feel more confident in their recovery.
This study is just one piece of the scientific foundation behind what we do. You can read the full paper below:
