High-tech bra was created by the developers of electrotechnology School at the National University of Colombia. They are very hopeful that it will soon be able to mass production of this model and bring it to the market so that it is available for a wide range of buyers. Currently being tested this invention and so far it has no name.

Small infrared sensors in the bra breast read the temperature and report their "owner" of any deviations from the norm. In this case, women are advised to immediately see a doctor and undergo a medical diagnosis, which will have to understand exactly whether there is a problem and, if necessary, begin treatment.

cancer cells provoke a more active circulation, and because of this, the body temperature increases in the area of ??breast tissue. Before you start wearing this bra, it is necessary to make breast ultrasound, then he will "know" base temperature, says the student Faculty of Engineering and the inventor of the "smart" clothes Maria Camila Cortez.

"We do not want to take on the responsibilities of a doctor. Our goal - the creation of technologies that will help as soon as possible to establish the existence of the problem. In addition, this bra keeps track of body temperature change for some time, and thus the doctor has the opportunity to assess the dynamics. "

Breast cancer - a common type of cancer that occurs in women, one in eight women facing him. He also ranks second after lung cancer site in the list of cancer leading to death (in the case of women). The exact causes of breast cancer like a set, but the risk factors are many. The most common - the age and genetic predisposition, but unhealthy lifestyle (eg, smoking, drinking and overeating) can also trigger the development of the disease.

As is the case with other forms of cancer, early detection greatly increases the chances of survival. Only die each year in the United States diagnosed "breast cancer" put over 230 thousand. Women each year, and more than 40 thousand.. But due to the fact that modern ultrasound and mammography allows to notice the problem at an early stage, women's awareness has become more inclusive, and the quality of care has improved, mortality rates over the past 25 years has significantly decreased.

Although to date most of the cancers can be determined at an early stage due to progressive medicine, in this case an extra vigilance never hurts. Yes, this bra will help keep track of changes in the mammary glands, but also need to regularly examine themselves and their own visits to the doctor.

At the beginning of March on Express UK online resource also came the news that medical scientists have proposed a new combination of drugs, which helps to cope with cancer formations in the chest for 11 days. This therapy will allow many patients to avoid surgery and subsequent chemotherapy.
