Changes in temperature caused by inflammatory processes or higher metabolic activity of cells precede to anatomical changes that can be detected by mammography and ultrasound, so RTM-01-RES is very promising for earlier detection of internal organ diseases and for detection of non-palpable neoplasm. The method is absolutely harmless both to the patients and to medical personnel, so examinations can be conducted as many times as you need. It allows to detect a pathology in proper time and monitor treatment without extra radiation load. As RTM-01-RES allows to select patients with proliferative activity of tissues, it can be used for earlier detection of breast cancer and screening. The internal temperature is measured by reading natural electromagnetic radiation from the patient's tissue at microwave frequencies. The temperature abnormality can be detected at a depth of 5-7 cm. Computer data processing helps doctors to analyse temperature readings. Results of RTM-diagnosis are shown on the monitor of the computer or printed out as a thermogram and temperature field on the projection of an investigated organ. The advantage of the method is an expert computer system for the differential breast cancer diagnosis. Clinical trials conducted in over 1000 patients have shown a high efficiency of RTM-01-RES for the breast cancer detection (its detective ability is about 90% and it is comparable with mammography). RTM-01-RES has undergone State Clinical Trials as a medical device for measuring purposes. Also we have got a licence on using RTM-01-RES in medicine practice from the Health Ministry of the Russian Federation, Russian Certificate of Type Affirmation, Russian Certificate of Conformance and German Certificate on electrosecurity. The system is protected by the patent of the Russian Federation and there are no analogs abroad. RTM-01-RES has been exposed at several international exhibitions and it is used successfully in England, Australia, Slovenia, Ukraine and in many Russian cities. The system consists of the following items:
The training course in RTM-Diagnosis consists of theory, software training and practical training in breast cancer detection. The course lasts 30 hours. In Moscow the training may be conducted at the center of Customer. The warranty period for the system is 12 months. Medical and Technical Specifications of RTM-01-RES
