Dynamic angiothermography (DATG)

Dynamic Angiothermography (DATG) is a noninvasive technique for the diagnosis of breast cancer. The instrument consists of a thin plate with liquid crystals that changes color due to a change in temperature, consequently offering an image of breast vasculature. DATG is based on the angiogenesis theory on tumor initiation, development, and growth. A tumor needs new vessels. Therefore, by studying the changes in the pattern of vascular blood supply, it is also possible to diagnose neoplasms very early. In particular, it is shown that every human being has his or her own vascular pattern which, in the absence of disease, does not vary throughout the life time. By repeating DATG periodically, an efficient control of the onset of disease is possible, even in its early stages. This is not new but still little-known technique which is a component of the overall diagnostic techniques for the study and prevention of breast cancer that serves to offer a complete clinical picture of the patient. ...
