Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement and method for detecting the presence in an animal organism of highly active cell accumulations with uncontrolled cell proliferation, which are a consequence of a tumor process.
  • the scope of the invention is the field of preventive medicine in the detection of overactive cell accumulations, although without referring to a medical diagnostic process as such.
  • Cancer is a disease whose early detection is vital for the survival and healing of the patient.
  • the non-detection of the disease allows the metastasis of the malignant tumors and thus the tumor tissue cells separate from it moving through the body through the lymphatic system or the circulatory system, depending on the type of tumor and its location, until they find an appropriate place of the organism in which they are fixed to begin their division, thus creating tumors in multiple places of the body that can give rise to new metastases and new tumors.
  • These cells lack another functional activity that is not to divide constantly, therefore, when they affect a vital organ they manage to supplant the organic tissue but without performing the functions of the original tissue; With this, as the tumor increases in size, the affected person begins to have organic difficulties. Normally when the first symptoms of the disease are Appreciable by the affected is already late, and the life expectancy is very short. It is easy to conclude that those affected by cancer die because the development of the tumor or its metastasis eventually destroys the vital organs damaged
  • metastasis depending on the type of tumor in question, occurs in a primary phase of the tumor or in a more advanced phase.
  • Skin tumors usually produce metastases rapidly, while in other types of tumors metastasis occurs when the tumor is more developed. Therefore, early detection of any type of malignant tumor is vital because, normally, when the disease shows symptoms, metastasis exists and the disease is practically irreversible.

  • the frame that carries the electromagnetic emitter and receiver moves, both longitudinally and transversely, on the support table in order to perform a first scan on the patient.
  • Said first scan allows to detect, before the administration of the contrast agent, any metallic object that the patient has embedded in the body. This first detection is captured, memorized and evaluated in the microprocessor to be dismissed.
