The developers of expertise Mechatronics at the Faculty of Engineering of the Autonomous University of Querétaro (UAQ), campus San Juan del Rio, designed the system to detect and predict the disease in circumstances that other methods can not do.
a group of researchers and students created a system to identify tumors or possible breast abnormalities, as well as a forecast to determine whether the patient will develop breast cancer in the future .
the developers of expertise Mechatronics at the Faculty of Engineering of the Autonomous University of Querétaro (UAQ), campus San Juan del Rio, designed the system to detect and predict the disease in circumstances other methods they can not do.
“we call it because it allows, through software, cross the information provided to us images of the patient data previously it gives us about his age, health habits and history of the disease in your family, “said the project manager, Luis Alberto Morales Hernandez.
” what generates not only a current diagnosis, but a forecast on the odds you have of developing the disease the next years. This software processes automatically images using mathematical algorithms, generating a pre-diagnosis, “he said.
The system uses a special camera that processes thermograms breast patient remotely, which provides precise images, in turn, prevents the discomfort of a review or radiation produced by common mammography and has no side effects on women.
in an interview with the News Agency of the National Council of Science and Technology (CONACYT), the researcher said that many women studies are not made to be uncomfortable and painful, besides normal mammogram can not be carried out frequently by the accumulation of radiation in the body.
Another advantage of this system is its technology easy to use that can use people without academic training in the areas of health.
“The methods currently exist such as mastógrafo, detect anatomical changes, so it requires a physical compression of the breasts, looking densities. We with thermography seek physiological changes, “said Morales Hernandez.
Meanwhile, the student in Mechatronics of the UAQ, Sofia Giovanna Vega Mancilla said that this technology is a convenient process for patients without But to realize it needed to have certain atmospheric conditions so that images are as accurate.
“the patient goes to a doctor, must be under certain environmental conditions, the temperature is controlled to prevent sweat. It will undresses and three shooting with the thermal imaging camera, one front and two side “, he said.
Giovanna Vega explained that the computer detects electromagnetic waves woman radiates, since cells cancer have a metabolism faster and therefore require a greater amount of nutrients the body sends blood through.
This new veins that feed the tumor and generate a temperature increase in that part of the breast and specialists observed the presence of abnormal behavior, diagnose and detect a possible condition they occur.
currently the method is in its patent process, which was designed by professor Luis Alberto Morales Hernandez, together with the coordinator of the campus in racing Electromechanics and Mechanics Automotive, Juan Primo Benitez Rangel and student Giovanna Vega Sofia Mancilla.
