Microwave Radiometry
2
RTM Principles
The RTM-01-RES radiometer receives and evaluates
the natural electromagnetic radiation
(temperature) from the patients internal tissues
at microwave frequencies

RTM - Diagnosis
The efficacy of the method is confirmed by
clinical trials, which were carried out among
more then 3500 patients
12
Breast Temperature Field
Results of the measurements can be displayed in
different modes
13
RTM-Diagnosis Software
Data of the measured temperatures are
automatically stored in the computers memory to
be processed.
14
Breast Temperature Field

• The green color represents the average
  temperature field of an examined organ

15
Breast Temperature Field
The red color represents a high temperature
field of an examined organ
16
Breast Temperature Field

• The blue color represents a lower than average
  normal temperature

17
Healthy Womans Field
Example This is the temperature field of a
healthy womans breasts.
18
Breast Temperature Field
Many diseases (such as cancer) are represented by
high temperature areas in the internal
temperature field.
19
Expert System
The software analyses whether an examined patient
has features of cancer.
20
Thermogram
The results of the measurements may also be
displayed as a thermogram. The fourth and the
fifth points on the left breast are marked.
21
In this case there is an extremely high
possibility that the examined patient has left
breast cancer

• The RTM-01-RES is indispensable for the
  monitoring of treatment due to the fact that it
  is absolutely harmless.

• This is a sample of the positive dynamics which
  occur during the treatment of mastitis.

23
During oncological processes thermal changes
precede anatomical changes. The diagnostic method
has a unique ability to detect cancer diseases at
early stages, when the traditional methods can
not detect diseases, which have just appeared.
Patient K., 57 years old
Clinical diagnosis - both breasts have diffuse
fibrocystic mastopathy, node neoplasm is not
detected. X-ray - fibrocystic mastopathy with
fibrous features. Puncture - erythrocytes, fat
drops.
