Yes it does. Caprius has put out a cost effective Mri machine dedicated to breast examination, nothing else. Leading Mammographer dc Norman Sadowski has been very public in praising the machine. Leading mammographer dc Schnall has access and its working with a machine. Unfortunatelly his institution made it impossible for him to have his own machine there. (politics). But he has access to the machine and is contributing to its clinical development. Dc Harms in Arkansa is currently working on a machine and we all await his coments. No doubt he may improve it. He is been quoting as saying he wants a cheap cost effective machine to screen for breast cancer more effectively.
Dc McIntosh is coming to Englewood to work in that center excited about the installation underway of the new Aurora.
Yet dc Klamman systems approach to breast cancer diagnosing using the latest equipment may prove to be ahead of all these luminaries. At Maggee she is setting up all of the different Mr diagnosing tools along with a new Aurora system. There is been a lot of Mri developments come from that institution and they will soon have the Aurora to work with.
I think the answer is yes and more of them will get to work with the machine in the future. I think women with dense breast tissue such as athletes like peggy fleming etc can be diagnosed properly using this machine. As you know peggy and a mammogram 5 months priour to discovering her breast cancer in self examination. Well these women need Mri scans to be properly diagnosed.
