Every single diagnostic procedure or imaging technique as a matter of fact is an interpretation of any Physical or Chemical Process in the Human Body , in the vast majority of these :
The results they turn out represent a SINGLE moment in time....
High Blood Pressure is Confirmed after several times it is taken in different environments...
Diabetes or Glucose intolerance is better diagnoses after the serial measurements after stimuli or with a "curve" definition.
Arrythmia has a more clear diagnosis when a "Holter" : 24 hour monitoring is done.
In breast cancer this MONITORING system has been historically determined to be every 365 to 730 days after 40 or 50 years of age.
Because MORPHOLOGIC changes take time to APPEAR in our Current Gold Standard Methods : Mammo , Ultrasound ,Nuclear Medicine or MRI.
Here we are safe and evident ......right? Are we?
Yet around 50% of the cases are diagnosed before 50 years of age.
70% of the cases are palpable and even will large scale screening : at best (developed countries ) around 30% are diagnosed at a non palpable stage.
Not to mention overdiagnosis , overtreament and "benign" natural evolution of certain in situ forms of the disease.
What if we could insert a closer in time monitoring system for breast cancer , especially the High Grade or aggresive forms of the disease?
What if we could combine different informations from different Physical Interpretation Angles.
Here is a resemblance that dignifies this possibility:
Anticipating an eruption
It is not yet possible to predict volcanic eruptions, but several new monitoring techniques, which are being tried out at Stromboli and elsewhere, may allow scientists to improve early warning of eruptions.
In many volcanoes, the bubbles of steam that drive the eruptions are also rich in carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and hydrogen chloride. These gases can be detected using chemical sensors, and spectrometers (both hand-held and on satellites), and changes in the proportions of the different gases leaking out of the volcano are often a sign of the arrival of new magma at depth. In some volcanoes, the slow rise of magma towards the surface leads to pressure changes inside the volcano, causing it to swell up. This swelling
can be measured by radar instruments on orbiting
satellites, and these signals are increasingly begin used
to monitor the behavior of restless volcanoes.
Volcanoes themselves are also noisy, with small earthquakes triggered by the breaking open of new fractures as magma rises. The bubbly melt trapped within the plumbing system of the volcano can also act as a sound-box, leading to distinctive signals as the seismic waves from local earthquakes resonate inside the volcano.
Closer monitoring systems that combine useful information ,
adjusted in time in a accurate format with an
understandable meaning can predict future events with no
doubt at all.
Although historically mentioned by some , spectrometry or
infrared or thermal monitoring of the breast
In Vivo..............sounds likely and highly possible ....
Would you like to be involved in a project like this?
Now here is an Infrared Image of a NON palpable aggresive
invasive Breast Carcinoma in a High Risk Patient.
Surveillance , monitoring of any type includes comparative images between "healthy" or Silent vs "diseased" or prompt to erupt.....
Infrared Close up of the Left "Diseased" Breast or "Erupting" Volcano.
What if she had previous access to a Metabolic Breast Monitor?
