Electronic pulse Bra can detect breast cancer

The breast cancer detection unit will conduct clinical trials in China, It is learned that thousands of Chinese women will participate in the pilot scheme.

From the United Kingdom De Montfort University researchers designed a bra that can detect breast cancer. Edmund Foote University is located in Leicester, England.

More secure, low cost

Researchers believe that such a device is effective, it may even tumors than conventional chest X-ray examination of the early detection and more effective. Moreover, this bra more secure and cheaper.

It is reported that when women wear the device, it can issue a small chest that can pass through the wearer of electronic pulses. It works by: E-pulse through the breast tissue healthy manner and through the breast tissue of tumor symptoms, the way is different.

The breast tissue of tumor is difficult to make electronic pulses through the wearer’s chest, the sensitive detection devices they put the data recorded.

The test device can be from different parts of the wearer’s breasts for detection perspective, and in the detection of breast tissue found in the unusual circumstances can, through a computer to sketch out their location.

So far, the experiment was also limited to the laboratory testing of tissue samples, but the researchers are confident that, after conducting clinical trials in patients, its value will be proven.

De Montfort University’s Graduate School in charge of Professor McCormick, compared to the early chest X-ray examination of cancer detection method, the lower cost of this approach.

Greater accuracy

The professor also said that although at present, early chest X-ray examination of cancer detection is still the post-menopausal women with breast cancer detection is the best solution.

But he said the use of bra-type breast cancer detection device has the advantage of this new technology may be suitable for all ages of the women, because the electrical impulses through the healthy manner and through the breast tissue of tumor symptoms of breast tissue in ways quite different.

Three out of product

At present, the United Kingdom has contacted a company in China in preparation for clinical trials of this new technology. It is learned that this is the first time in British universities with China launched a similar cooperation.

If the clinical trial is successful, then this new technology products will be sold within three years, appears in the counter.

De Montfort University, Professor McCormick said, we believe that this bra type of breast cancer detection device can be placed on health Center. If women with breast cancer have doubts about whether, if they can come take a look, choose one to wear.
