How is the RTM-diagnostic used in medical practice?
The largest experience has been accumulated in
mammology:
-
Execution of screening tests for separating risk group
- Multiple use jointly with mammography for reducing false-negative
results down to 2%
- Control of benign tumors treatment
- Breasts examination of young woman and expectant mothers
- Timely detection of interval cancers
- Forecast evaluation of malignant neoplasm and selection
of patients with high growth tumors
At the same time in a great number of medical centers experienced
and interested specialists use RTM-01-RES
Diagnostic Radiothermometer in a more extensive manner. The
noninvasive measuring of internal tissues temperature helps in examination
of thyroid body, detection of bloodstream disturbance in lower limbs,
arthropathies and vertebral column disease, detection of metastases
in bones and lungs. The infrared sensor, a part in the microwave
radiothermometer, is indispensable in melanoma diagnostic. The research
concerning the use of the RTM-method in gynecology both for oncologic
and inflammatory disease diagnostic and control of manipulation
physiotherapeutic procedures is carried out.

Where is the RTM - diagnostic used ?
You
can get an answer to this question in the RMAPO Chair of Clinical
Radiology and oncologic dispensaries in Samara and Kaluga, in the
National Laser Medicine Science Center and in the Oncology Department
in the Polyclinic No 92 of Moscow Central Administrative District,
in the Road Clinical Hospital No 6 and Medical Departments of large
manufacturing outfits in Moscow Region and Bashkiria as well as
in a number of private medical centers in Moscow, Chelyabinsk, Novosibirsk,
Kirov, Krasnoyarsk, Saratov and Barnaul.
In 2004 these medical establishments installed and now they successfully
use the RTM-01-RES Diagnostic
Radiothermometer composed of a computerized diagnostic system
for early detection of breasts cancer.
The
existing possibilities for image of examination results have been
extended with a viewing and printing procedure of the new protocol
representing a document reflecting all the examination cycle.
The
protocol contains not only the patient information but also
temperature fields received at measuring of deep and surface temperatures.
Besides, to make the analysis convenient, the protocol has a combined
thermogram and core temperatures asymmetry represented graphically
and in the form of a temperature field respectively.

Our Web site presents the synopsis of the thesis dissertation for
the degree of Candidate of Medical Science
“Deep radiothermometry in diagnostics and dynamic control of the
acute pyelonephritis treatment”. The competitioner is Shirshov
Vasili Nikolaevitch. The work was realized in 2003 on the chair
of urology and operative nephrology in the faculty of medicine of
the Russian University of Nations Friendship. Research manager:
Doctor of Medical Science, Professor Avdoshin V.P. Official opponents:
Doctor of Medical Science, Professor Borisov V.V., Doctor of Medical
Science, Professor Shapligin L.V.
Radiothermometric diagnostic criteria for different clinical entities
of the acute pyelonephritis have been developed for the first time.
A high diagnostic information capacity of the RTM-method
has been demonstrated in an early detection of the acute pyelonephritis
which is comparable with the ultrasound investigation, radiographic
and clinicolaboratory examination techniques. A RTM-monitoring scheme
has been proposed to evaluate treatment efficiency.
June 2003
The radiothermometry has been marked as an up-to-date informative
trend in the diagnostics of breast diseases at the II-nd All-Russian
conference “Scientific-organizational aspects and modern diagnostic
and treatment technologies in the mammology”
held in Moscow in the Russian Scientific Center of Radiology and
Nuclear Medicine of the Ministry of Public Health of the Russian
Federation in May 2003.
More
than 400 visitors of the exhibition " Medtekhnika - 2003"
in Moscow were attracted by the stand with the poster "Non-Invasive
Measuring of Internal Temperature". Although leading European,
American and Japanese diagnostic equipment manufacturers displayed
their devices at the exhibition, it was the Russian diagnostic complex
RTM-01-RES
developed by Moscow scientists that enjoyed particular popularity.
RES Ltd. presented
statistics on the use of radiothermometry (RTM-diagnosis) in the
field of mammology. The specialists of the firm spoke about new
diagnostic opportunities and shared their diagnostic experience
in neurology, gynecology and urology. In the course of the discussion,
launched by those presentations, some practicing doctors also brought
in the ideas of using radiothermometry for such purposes as localizing
muscle microtraumas in sports medicine, monitoring hypothermia treatment,
phlebology, and taking animals’ temperature.

In the Proceedings
of the III Russian Scientific Forum “X-Ray Diagnostics and X-Ray
Therapy in Clinic of XXI” held in Moscow from 17 to 19 April three
reports devoted to microwave radiometry have been published.
For studies
65 patients with tension headache were examined. Investigators measured
the internal averaged temperature in 20 points at microwave frequencies
by the RTM-01-RES microwave imaging system.
The studies
have shown that microwave radiometry (RTM-Diagnosis) reflects a
certain value that depends on the ratio between the metabolic level
and microcirculation in the examined area. These changes also appear
for the muscles palpated with tenderness. Thus RTM-Diagnosis is
promising as an objective diagnostic criterion of the muscular disorders
in tension headache.
The second report
by Timur Yu. Gousseinov and Sergey G. Vesnin “Microwave
Radiometry as Prognostic Criterion of Treatment of Tension Headache
Associated with Muscular Disorders” discusses the data of measuring
the temperature in the back surface of the neck in patients with
tension headache before treatment. RTM-Diagnosis was performed with
the RTM-01-RES microwave imaging system. The measurement data were
compared with treatment results in 6 months after treatment. Investigations
have shown that patients with an originally lower temperature in
the cervicothoracic transition had a better treatment result. In
the previous report authors noted that such a thermal abnormality
appeared in patients with neck muscular disorders. So positive results
can be expected after using the treatment method discussed in the
report in patients with muscular disorders accompanied by a typical
thermal pattern.
The report presented
by Larisa M. Burdina, Ievsey G. Pinkhosevich, Vladimir A. Khailenko,
Sergey G. Vesnin and Nadezda N. Tikhomirova “Experience
of Using RTM-01-RES Radiometer for Breast Cancer Diagnosis”
demonstrates results of using the radiometer in conjunction with
other diagnostic methods in Brunch ¹1 of the Mammology Health Centre
during 5 years. For this period 2233 examinations have been performed
and 1506 patients with various breast diseases were examined.
The results
have shown that when RTM-Diagnosis is used in conjunction with Mammography
the sensitivity for breast cancer diagnosis is 98%, while for each
method independently it is about 90%.
Authors notice
that that RTM-Diagnosis is a very effective method for the monitoring
of the therapeutic treatment of benign breast diseases. The method
is absolutely harmless, so it can be repeated many times. In conclusion
authors denote benefits of the method and that it is useful to include
it in the complex breast cancer diagnostics.
