Public MRI scanner: state and politics

What if you found out that Russia's population is regularly exposed to atomicbombings? No, it's not about nuclear testing somewhere in the remote steppes ofour vast country. What if you learned that people actually voluntarily come to thearea of radiation but still paying for her visit? Say that this is from the category of science fiction? Maybe! But probably not!

According to the latest , one survey in the X-ray room is commensurate with obtaining the radiation dose equivalent to human exposure, is located 2.4 km from the epicenter of a nuclear explosion in Hiroshima. But "X-rays" send our people, how to work - at every medical examination ...


"What do you do?" - surely you think. "I never go into the office, two kilometers from a nuclear explosion! .." But something should be treated! What, really, to do?!
First of all - do not panic! Indeed, today, X-ray examination in many cases - no alternative method of diagnosis. But what will happen tomorrow? Are there promising technology? Yes, they are, and, above all, it magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) . Without the use of X-ray doctors can get a clear picture of any body of man, and to repeat the study many times without the risk of exposure to ionizing radiation.


30 years of careful work! Hundreds of scientific discovery! Three Nobel Prize! And all this - in the field of an MRI scan! In the West, diagnosis on the MRI performed on almost any occasion. Fans of the popular television series today, "House" you will confirm. The eponymous character in every episode sends patients to the magnetic imaging (MRI).


And what are we worse? Why, if the whole world has long moved on MRI scan, we still live in times of X-rays? The answer, of course, is obvious. Money. MRI scanners produced in the bulk of its overseas and are expensive. Their operation, for technological reasons, as cost is very expensive.
But what if you are now told that our scientists had developed a scanner that requires much less money for its purchase and ownership? How far-sighted person, you will certainly agree that it should adopt in life and make it mass production! Do not you think?


And how many had to scanners? It is easy to calculate. Every Russian must at least once every two years to pass medical examinations and, therefore, to attend a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). On average, one scanner can take about 5 thousand people a year. In other words, in order to examine 75 million patients a year, to 15 thousand scanners.


Even the most optimistic we have been discussing plans to produce 100 scanners a year in Russia. But it will need 150 years to complete the entire program of releasing a sufficient number of vehicles. It is obvious that produce scanners in Russia need a lot more, and one company will not raise such a problem on their own. Therefore, without government support, politicians can not do without.
There is another aspect of our project. Thousands of highly qualified Russian specialists can get a job in the process of its implementation. The problem of brain drain will finally be resolved, the country will be developed some of the most modern technology. In addition, the Public MRI scanner has a huge export potential. Suffice it to say that in the process of creating his prototype - an MRI scanner "Unitom" - we received requests for its delivery of the thirty countries.


Imager and politics - what is the connection? Just this problem affects millions of people, and who, no matter how politicians take part in its decision. Join us, and the words of the nation's health will get its real incarnation!

How much should cost scanner ???!!!

Onishchenko warns: X-rays are very harmful to your health!

One survey in the X-ray machine gives you a charge of radiation, what would you have, being 2.4 km from Hiroshima in 1945. Than to replace it?
