This is precisely what saved my father's life last year.
16 years ago he had some kind of brain cyst. Totally benign. But as a follow up, the doctor ordered yearly MRIs, much to his annoyance.
Last year those yearly routine MRIs spotted a brain tumor- before it had time to get dangerous or cause any damage to him. It was growing quickly though and was right near his eye. Quick surgery got it out.
I want to live in a world where everyone has access to that.
- lostlogin 5y agoA tumour can be a lot smaller than 1cm and cause issues. A pituitary microadenoma is an example, and this machine would struggle to show it. That said, I’d like a go. I suspect that with more samples (more time) you could get the resolution up.
