Abstract
Systems configured to acquire temperature signals from an Abreu Brain Thermal Tunnel (ABTT), to analyze the temperatures signals, and to determine a condition of a human body from the analysis, and a method for doing the same, are described. In addition, systems for application of thermal signals to the ABTT for treatment of conditions are described.
Core Innovation
The invention provides an apparatus that measures temperatures at left and right Abreu Brain Thermal Tunnel (ABTT) termini of a subject. A first temperature sensor is positioned between a left eyebrow and a left eye to transmit a first signal representing a first temperature, and a second temperature sensor is positioned between a right eyebrow and a right eye to transmit a second signal representing a second temperature.
A processor receives the first and second signals to identify a consistent gradual temperature increase of greater than or equal to 0.2 degrees Celsius at one ABTT terminus as compared to the other ABTT terminus. The processor transmits an alert signal when the identified consistent gradual temperature increase occurs in a period greater than or equal to 120 hours.
An alert device receives the alert signal and provides an alert indicative of cancer. The disclosed embodiments include identifying which side, left versus right, exhibits the threshold temperature increase, and the cancer alert is triggered based on that side localization.
Claims Coverage
The independent claim defines a cancer-indicative temperature monitoring apparatus with two ABTT terminus sensors, a processor that detects a consistent gradual temperature increase meeting quantitative conditions over a specified time period, and an alert device that generates a cancer-related alert. Four inventive features are identified.
Left and right ABTT terminus temperature sensing
A first temperature sensor positioned to measure a first temperature of a left ABTT terminus located between a left eyebrow and a left eye and to transmit a first signal; a second temperature sensor positioned to measure a second temperature of a right ABTT terminus located between a right eyebrow and a right eye and to transmit a second signal.
Consistent gradual temperature increase identification with side comparison
A processor configured to receive the first signal and the second signal, identify a consistent gradual temperature increase of greater than or equal to 0.2 degrees Celsius at one of the left ABTT terminus and the right ABTT terminus as compared to the other, and transmit an alert signal when the identified increase is present.
Cancer alert after a specified duration
An alert signal is transmitted when the consistent gradual temperature increase of greater than or equal to 0.2 degrees Celsius occurs in a period greater than or equal to 120 hours.
Alert device indicative of cancer
An alert device configured to receive the alert signal and provide an alert indicative of cancer.
Overall, the independent claim covers a two-sensor left/right ABTT terminus temperature apparatus that compares sides, detects a consistent gradual temperature increase meeting a greater than or equal to 0.2 degrees Celsius threshold over a greater than or equal to 120 hours period, and generates a cancer-indicative alert.
