Electroimpedance diagnosis of the breasts cancer
The new medical device electrical impedance mammography "MEIK" is concentrate mainly on the early discover of pathology of the milk gland, also the breasts. The oncological pathologies of the breasts are permanent in the center of attention as of the world health society. The reason is the ceaseless growth of oncological diseases of breasts and from that the following also a high mortality of female patients with the carcinoma pathology of the breast. During the last 15 years has the carcinoma of the breast moved from the fourth place to the first place in the structure of oncological pathology. Each fifth woman is deceasing on the carcinoma of the breast. The success of the actual treatment nearby clear depends from the stadium of the development of the discovered cancer process. So as early as possible identification of the carcinoma or also other diseases of the breast can lead to a significant reduction of proportion of mortality between the woman.

At the present the most used method of diagnosis by the breasts is the radiological rtg mammography . The actual examination and also the method are connected with many complications, trouble and accessory effects for the female patient. It´s mainly about the actual process of examination, where the breasts are pressed between two metal plates, what is painful enough. Successive the breast will be treated with rtg radiation. But many scientist experts consider also small doses of rtg radiation for the initiator of cancer growth. The classic rtg mammography is nearby very little effective by younger female patients (under 40 years). The reason is the higher density of the soft tissue in the breast.
Research in the area of technology of electric impedance opened new perspectives in research of electrical conductivity of human tissue and with it also of the milk gland. The electric resistance of the bio tissue (conductivity) nearby belongs between it´s main characteristics.
The last scientific research in the area of conductivity utilised the electroimpedance of alive tissues for the construction of the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and with it also the mammograph, which is able to visualize the soft tissues in the human organism. Changes of the physiological status of organs under the influence of chemical and physical factors as also various pathological processes have a clear influence to the electrical properties of the alive tissue. The electroimpedance tomograph (mamograph) is about all able to visualize the physiological status of the tissue, then also organs, which are defined through biological processes in the organism and mainly these, which are manifested through the change of the electrical conductivity, as are for example tumor processes.
The output from this device is a graphic and digital information (electrical conductivity, impedance and histogram) about the status of organs and tissues.

The single examination is absolute secure for patient and also for the operating staff. The examination can be repeated many times in succession and that is very suitable by judgement of the influence of the single treatment on the status of the pathological process mainly by oncological patients.
Electroimpedance diagnostic method doesn´t show any accessory influences on the alive organism. This method is absolute secure.

The single measurement of the electroimpedance will be carried out with the apposing of the measure probe of the device to the breast so, that as much as possible the number of small electrodes are in contact with the skin.
Nearby one measurement lasts approximately 20 seconds and the signal will be successive elaborated and visualized. The computer elaboration of the signal clearly ease doctors to distinguish the single pathologies and following to determinate the diagnosis by the examined female patient.

The chart output from the electroimpedance mammograph make it possible to observe the status of the measured tissue of some seven transversal cuts deep until 4,5 cm and observe the output parameters separate for each stratum.
Through the combination of examinations with help of electroimpedance mammograph, microwave radiometry and sonography it´s possible to reach a maximal reliability exactitude, specificity as also sensibility of the diagnostic method of the carcinoma of milk gland (breast), but also other organs of the human body.
