CRT (Computerized Regulation Thermography)

It is a non-invasive diagnostic tool with scientifically valid, reproducible results. CRT is an FDA approved adjunctive diagnostic device, so the results can be trusted. CRT can detect dysfunction even when conventional blood tests and radiographic tests were negative.

Applications

It locates dysfunction with precision. Enables your doctor to develop a more exact treatment strategy plan. Clearly shows future disease tendencies or those in the process of development.

Benefits

Make you a better patient by giving you a better understanding of the why’s and how’s of gaining maximum quality of life. Helps the doctor to be a better one, by providing him/her with vital information no other test could provide.

WHY IS TRACKING SKIN TEMPERATURE USEFUL?

How well the body maintains an optimum skin temperature is determined by the integrity or health of the organ or tissue directly beneath the point of the skin being measured by the CRT temperature probe.  A healthy body, in reaction to cold weather, will cause constriction of the superficial blood vessels of the skin and organs.  This constriction shunts blood away from the skin and organs, and sends it to the head to keep the brain from becoming too cold.

The diverting of blood from the skin causes the skin to cool in the absence of the warm circulating blood.  The normal amount of blood left in the skin in response to the 68 degree cold stimulus of the CRT test is enough to maintain a .3-1.0 degree cooler temperature after ten minutes of exposure.  When the organ underlying the point being tested is not functioning properly, your skin temperature will show the type of dysfunction by the difference between the first and second CRT readings.  Correlations can then be made to all of the other temperature readings.  Your CRT test will reveal much about your state of health. 

Procedure Details

A professional thermodiagnostic technician will perform the CRT testing.  You will be asked to sit in a fairly cool, but not uncomfortable, room for 10 to 15 minutes.  We will then take the first skin temperature measurements of the head, teeth and neck.  This is performed by a gentle touch of the probe to the surface of the skin.  You are then asked to remove your clothes to your underwear, thereby subjecting your whole body to a controlled cold air “stress”.  The room is not excessively cold, only about 68 degrees Fahrenheit.  The remaining measurements on the chest, breast, abdomen and back are made rather quickly.  You are then asked to sit as you are, exposed to the room air for 10 minutes to complete the stress effect.  According to the clinical research, it takes 10 minutes for your body to stabilize and acclimate to the regulatory changes from the internal organs out the skin.  After this period all 112 measurements are then repeated and the test is concluded.  the results are retained in a computerized printout, which reveal the reactions of the body and the functional health of various organs and their associated systems.

CRT Registers skin surface temperature from 112 different points on the body. Displays an image yielding a scan of 25 organs, tissues or systems and their functions. While x-rays give a structural view, CRT gives us a functional perspective based on physiology and cold stress response. By computer analysis of the skin temperature patterns, the doctor gains a direct index of the metabolic activity in the various parts of the body. The CRT scan will also show how inflamed, degenerated, or overactive organ or tissue processes.
