Qualitative study on cancer diagnosis and primary caregiver coping experience based on infra-red thermography: Impact of protein metabolism and immune function

Traditional cancer diagnosis methods include imaging examinations, biopsy, etc., but these methods are often invasive, time-consuming, and costly. This study aims to explore the application effect of infra-red thermography technology in cancer diagnosis and analyse the coping experience of primary caregivers during patient diagnosis and treatment. The data collection methods include semi-structured interviews, observations, and questionnaire surveys. The research results show that infra-red thermography technology has high sensitivity and specificity in cancer diagnosis, which can assist doctors in detecting early signs of tumours. Therefore, cancer diagnosis technology based on infra-red thermography has shown great potential in early detection and is expected to become a beneficial supplement to traditional diagnostic methods. At the same time, caregivers' coping experiences during cancer diagnosis and treatment are complex and diverse, requiring the healthcare system to provide more support and resources to help them better adapt and cope.
