NLS-method And Vascular Pathology Diagnosis

Today the world faces a constant trend of a growing rate of morality caused by occlusive vascular diseases, especially by cerebrovascular disorders which are in the third place among death causes. On the one hand the trend is caused by a growing number of elderly and aged patients. On the other many men even already at 45 have atherosclerotic damage of main head arteries =, causing the need for a dispensary observation.

The most simple and at the same time informative method of noninvasive diagnosis of occlusive damage of peripheral vessels appeared to be the NLS-method with has been used in clinical practice not long since. The first NLS devices equipped with analog trigger sensors, operating in 1.4 GHz frequency mode and used in clinical practice since the late 90-s have not their importance yet. They can determine the condition of certain sections of the main vessels in the lower limbs and that of the brachiocephalic vessels.

The NLS-method was developed in the mid 90-s played an essential role in in vascular pathology diagnosis. The main advantage of the NLS-method was that differentiate vessels from nonvascular structures, arteries from venis and very accurately detect sings of disturbed vascular permeability caused by stenosis or occlusion of the vessel lumen by an atheroscierotic patch or thrombus which are generally not visible on screening in B-mode alone.
The NLS-method is indispensable fro differential diagnostics of benign and malignant hepatic diseases. Its sensitivity is comparable with the potential of conventional or digital angiography and computer assisted amplified tomography. In addition, the NLS-method is much cheaper, simpler and more intelligible. In can be employed directly at the patient's bedside if required. The NLS-method can be used in ophthalmology to check ocular hemodynamics before or after surgical intervention, in obstetrics to detect the disturbed blood current in umbilical cord arteries with a view to diagnose a retarded fetus development and predict a negative perinatal produce.

The NLS-method work with Biophilia Tracker X5 Ultra is one of the most dynamic techniques and within the next few years it is bound to bring some new discoveries.
