For the first time, they showed the body with a colorful X-ray using CERN technology

BRATISLAVA. The black and white X-ray images to the doctor immediately show if you have a fracture. Well, they will tell them very little about the other tissues that surround your bones.

With this new technology, doctors will no longer have to look only at black and white body images.

The first 3D color radiograph is presented by MARS Bioimaging, who also uses technology developed by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)

Shows the body using Radiography works on a simple principle. Thicker tissues, such as bones, absorb the beam. Through soft tissues such as muscles, the beam passes.

The resulting image is then a negative image of your body. The structures through which the beam has not passed are white. And those by which he passed without any problem are black.

The three-dimensional color radiograph, which has been developed for ten years, would give much more information to the doctor.

Instead of the instrument measuring whether the rays pass through or pass through tissues, the new color scan measures the precise energy levels of X-rays as they touch each particle in your body

The measured values ​​then convert the computer algorithm

When a color scan is used

The MARS scanner is currently only used for studies. Some of them are focused on research on cancer and stroke.

Preliminary results suggest that if a new color scanner was used by doctors, it could provide a more accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment for each patient

also includes Medipix originally developed in CERN-e. Medipix is ​​a scanning chip used to display and detect particles

"This technology separates the machine from the others, its tiny pixels and its precise energy resolutions allow this new imaging tool to capture images that are just right. no other imager can do "CERN wrote in a press release from Phil Butler.

The first use in patients will be launched in New Zealand. If everything goes as planned, it can take several years for the scanner to reach real ambulances
