New Cognition Assessment & Concussion Metrics
A NEW RESEARCH STUDY IS UNDERWAY AT THE BARD CANCER CENTER IN NYC. Dr. Robert Bard and a local research team combines the latest biometric scanning advantages of transcranial DOPPLER imaging, hemodynamic ULTRASOUND scanning (of the retinal, basilary and temporal arteries) and the integration of BIOFEEDBACK technology for a special research study. This neuro-scan review establishes (1) a cross-comparative study between the technologies and (2) a multi-modality screening & monitoring protocol to record post-concussion and neurodegenerative disorders.One of several major focus areas for this project is to explore the development of a diagnostic paradigm in the detection of post concussion symptoms including the growing reports of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy/ CTE, identified from head concussions in military service and high impact sports.

 
 

Elastography and Doppler Ultrasound are both physiologic technologies which show whether the cancer treatment is working or not. They provide effective therapeutic markers over a blood test. SCANNING A TUMOR WITH ELASTOGRAPHY- Elastic ultrasound technology is an advancement where we can get real-time images, this scan shows the tumor from beginning to end as we scan through it.

DERM-NEWS 2022: TOXINS IN THE SKIN
According to the CDC, DERMAL ABSORPTION happens when a chemical goes through the skin and travels into the body. Many chemicals used in the workplace or even from home (ie. pesticides and organic solvents) can wreak havoc on and under the skin, damage internal organs and also the immune system if they penetrate the skin and enter the bloodstream. Most efforts to address chemical hazards have been focused on breathing, digesting or drinking chemicals rather than what's being absorbed through skin. . (See INFLAMMATORY SKIN DISEASE Poster)

 
 

FROM PINKSMART NEWS: Ultrasound Significantly Reduces False Readings of DENSE BREAST Tissue
7/8/2021- A wave of recognized medical sites, journals and reports are now indicating that dense breast tissue increases the risk of developing breast cancer and often masks a tumor from being seen on the mammogram since dense tissue is white and cancerous tissue is also white. Mammograms are the standard screening test for breast cancer, however, in the 21st Century, ultrasound non invasive imaging is the preferred exam for dense “lumpy” mammary disease.

Editorial Feature: UNDERDIAGNOSED WOMEN (4.5min)
Historically, there is substantial evidence of gross disregard and dismissive response on the part of the medical establishment in the way women have been diagnosed. Critics have speculated everything from professional carelessness to blatant sexism (and other forms of discrimination) to a lack of updated education in current research. This compelling report starts with the landmark story of the legendary comedienne, Gilda Radner who died of ovarian cancer remission in 1989, then to the treatment complications of Nancy Cappello whose false negative mammography reports led to a fatal, late stage breast cancer(2018). Their stories remain as life-saving references about early detection. (see complete article)
 
 
 
LAUNCH OF THE WOMEN'S DIAGNOSTIC NETWORK 2/25- Under a collaborative blueprint initiated by the NY Cancer Resource Alliance, Dr. Roberta Kline (OB-GYN), Dr. Noelle Cutter (Molloy University), Dr. Robert Bard (NYC Diagnostic Imaging), this new professional group brings a wide range of health resources for women's health. All clinical professionals working on women's issues unites to offer a DIAGNOSTIC-based cooalition supporting a road map to integrative health analyses and problem solving. It is this commitment to a deeper sense of examination of the patient that lends itself to a more holistic and integrative strategy to therapeutics. It is also this philosophy that draws more intuitive and insightful clinicians to collaborate and share insights on a patient's disorder with compassion and genuine care.

Osteoarthritis in the Hand: Observed Response to PEMF Diagnostic Science
In a observational review from an unrelated patient study, a 70+ year old female expressed increasing difficulty in daily hand functions like sewing, folding clothes and dish washing. X-ray was done by a hand surgeon which showed arthritis of the first metacarpophalangeal joint. The bones were too close reducing range of motion in the thumb because the cartilage separating the bone was degenerated completely, validating the diagnosis of arthritis in the hand. The surgeon concluded Osteoarthritis and this symptom is stated to be the most common finding in hand arthritis.
   
Real-Time Pre & Post Imaging of PEMF Treatment Diagnostic Science
Published • Nov 16, 2021. QUANTITATIVE IMAGING: “AFTER THERAPY” using ELECTROMAGNETIC COIL TREATMENT. This BEFORE AND AFTER study validates the benefits of 3D ultrasound and its ‘actual-motion’ imaging and treated area responds to the therapy. Comparing to its condition before treatment with the magnetic coil, we are able to see the muscle contractions of the significantly weakened quadriceps femoris (hip flexor/knee extensor). After 15 minutes with a PEMF device (under efficacy review), an immediate scan with realtime ultrasound shows a significant reduction in muscle contractions.
   
Male Breast Cancer is Very Real! Published Oct 9, 2021 In an interview with survivors, oncologists and Dr. Robert L. Bard (cancer radiologist/NYC), there is one loud message transcending throughout this powerful report: "Male Breast Cancer is Very Real... and ANYONE can get it!" According to the Male Breast Cancer Coalition, government health reports show an estimated 2550 new cases in US with a mortality rate between 280-480. This indicates that over the past 10 years, new cases are up by 22% and mortality rate is up by about 19% from previous years.
   
A FALSE POSITIVE vs. THE REAL PROBLEM- which one is worse? A "False Positive" is the statistical classification in medicine referring to less appealing terms like a MISREAD, an INACCURATE OVERSIGHT or a WRONG CONCLUSION. It is essentially a flaw in the patient diagnostic report that would cascade into the clinical team pursuing an inaccurately founded plan or the wrong path of care. My first commitment as a medical professional was in the US Air Force (1971) where I first witnessed the critical and sometimes even fatal results of 'false positive' reports and readings.
   
"GOT METALS?" Research Project: Imaging Identifies Subdermal Calcification & Exploring Links to Heavy Metal Toxicity. In a 2020-2021 patient review of my patients showing elevated traces of HEAVY METALS in the bloodstream appear to also show concerning reactions on and under the skin- particularly from raised-to-high ARSENIC and MERCURY levels as indicated in the patients’ blood tests. These cases appear as significant skin disorientation as a result of heavy calcium buildup within the dermal area as shown by ultrasound imaging. HEAVY METAL BLOOD TEST: To note, metals are everywhere in our lives.
