Abstract
The “‘Bi-Digital O-Ring Test’ Molecular Identification and Localization Method” has been applied to simple, safe, effective, non-invasive & cost effective imaging of internal organs without exposing the patient to undesirable radiation, such as x-rays, or strong magnetic fields. The internal organs successfully imaged on the body surface and used for diagnosis and treatment include the G.I. system (such as the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, pancreas, gall bladder, bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, colon, appendix); Genito-Urinary system (such as uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, urinary bladder, prostate gland, kidneys) and some specific types of malignant tumors (such as adeno-carcinoma of stomach, head of pancreas, prostate gland, colon, etc.); adrenal glands; cardiovascular system (including major blood vessels and right and left coronary arteries). Using this method (originally described in previous publications), once imaging of the specific internal organ is made on the body surface, abnormalities of the organs can be localized by the size and shape of the imaged organ made on the body surface, as well as abnormal response of certain parts of the imaged internal organ by the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test. By the use of reference pure microorganisms or their antibodies, the presence or absence of bacterial or viral antigens or antibodies can be predicted and can also be localized. The distribution of the antigens or antibodies and possible presence of infection can be graphically shown, including infected parts of the imaged organs. Abnormalities detected by the “Bi-Digital O-Ring Test” can be evaluated as to whether they are due to circulatory disturbances, microbial infections or abnormalities in the biochemical components by the use of reference pure molecules or microorganisms. Using the “Bi-Digital O-Ring Test,” before and after acupuncture, these parameters have been repeatedly examined and one can thereby evaluate the effects of acupuncture, not only on the shape and size of the internal organ being evaluated, but also the distribution of the antigens and antibodies of micro-organisms and normal and abnormal biochemical components.
Following is a summary of important latest developments:
1) Using microscopic slides of either the left or right coronary artery cross sections, the right and left coronary arteries projected on the chest wall were imaged. This imaging had excellent correlation with 2-dimensional projection of the coronary arteries on the chest wall. 2) In those who had myocardial infarct, on the imaged coronary arteries the exact location of the narrowing of the arteries was localized by the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test. The exact location and degree of abnormality found by the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test corresponded reasonably well with location and degree of narrowing of the left or right coronary arteries shown in the angiograph. 3) Imaging of distribution of the human “Atrial Natriuretic Factors” were localized by the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test while reference pure human “Atrial Natriuretic Factors" were held in the hand. In normal persons, “Atrial Natriuretic Factors” were localized, mainly in the right atrium, particularly in the right atrial appendage area. 4) Using thymus gland as the reference substance in the area of the right atrium in the same area where human “Natriuretic Factors” were found, a thymus gland positive response was shown. 5) The author discovered that in every part of the body where there is pain, there was significant increase in substance P and L-tryptophan (precursor of serotonin) and marked decrease in serotonin. When acupuncture or electrical stimulation improved the circulation, pain often disappeared, with significant increase in serotonin and marked decrease in both substance P and L-tryptophan. 6) When brain circulation and blood pressure decreased significantly and serotonin concentrated in the raphe nuclei of the reticular formation at both sides of the center midline of the reticular formation at the Pons and medulla oblongata, the patient often developed all or some of the following syndromes:
(1) sleep disturbance. (2) difficulty in concentration (3) easy forgetfulness of recent events. (4) spasticity of muscles of the neck, shoulders and back. (5) increased sensitivity to pain. (6) irritability. (7) various degrees of depression.
All of these symptoms can be explained by decrease in circulation at the reticular formation around the center of the Pons and medulla oblongata. Decrease in circulation to the Raphe Nuclei Centralis Superior most likely produces disturbance in the sleeping or waking state, namely, either insomnia or excessive sleepiness. Decrease in circulation to the Raphe Nuclei reduces synthesis and release of serotonin, which results in increased pain sensitivity. Decrease in circulation at the Nucleus Reticularis Giganto Cellularis increases muscle tone and, as a result, the patient feels muscle spasticity. As soon as acupuncture or electrical stimulation improves the circulation of basilar arteries and posterior cerebral arteries, these cephalic hypotension syndromes disappear.
