  • Method of infrared thermography for earlier diagnosis of gastric colorectal and cervical cancer
    Patent number: 8774902
    Abstract: A device and method to diagnose an internal abnormality in a living subject by sensing a passively occurring electromagnetic radiation signal associated with the abnormality and inside an orifice of the subject. Diagnosis includes detection, imaging or identification of the abnormality. An instrument is used either to bring a sensor into the orifice or to transmit the signal to a sensor located outside of the orifice. An example of the instrument includes a prior art endoscope.

  • Combined visual-optic and passive infra-red technologies and the corresponding systems for detection and identification of skin cancer precursors, nevi and tumors for early diagnosis
    Publication number: 20070073156
    Abstract: A device and method to non-invasively identify pathological skin lesions. The method and device detect and identify of different kinds of skin nevi, tumors, lesions and cancers (namely, melanoma) by combined analyses of visible and infra-red optical signals based on integral and spectral regimes for detection and imaging leading earlier warning and treatment of potentially dangerous conditions.
