BIG
NEWS, BUT FIRST A REVIEW of the previous volume:
Weaknesses
in the operating software for the new
unit. /// The 3 D routine
took a bit of coaxing: ///
The system demands any flash drive be 2 Gig or
better. ///I had to install a one port to four port /// The function
keys are a dream ///
The
gray scale gamma curves set. ///I redesigned my ultrasound dolly/table to
allow for the extra components. ///The new addendum keyboard will allow
me to print constant floating
titles.
//// I employed the
M mode /new machine systems should be exercised in all functions and
modes a bit to trigger all capabilities. /// The mysteries of accelerated
healing are being slowly unwrapped.
healing is boosted 10X to 50X there is little excessive aching since
the lymph drainage keeps pressures low.
I have not had a chance yet to try the new style Accel units on hard
tissues such as ribs. /// Viewing a
spine before and after chiropractic adjustment is worth a dozen positive
thinking seminars! If doctors
of chiropractic only fully realized what they do each day, there would be
a different socio political scenario as they took a back seat to no one.
NOW
THE BIG NEWS:
HISTOGRAMS!
A
histogram capability is available in the new system that allows mathematical
proof of efficacy for adjustments or
therapies.
How
it works: When the histogram
function is chosen an aiming box comes up on
screen. A target is chosen with
the box-like aiming
graphic. An instant graph is produced
that mathematically represents the number of
pixels in each shade of
gray. There are 256 shades of
gray, but any picture has a distribution from black to gray to
white. The histogram function
charts out precisely what this distribution might
be. A more light picture is
going to have more light gray to white dots
(pixels). Its graph
will have a shift rightward (toward the white end of the chart). A more dark
picture will have more dark gray to black
pixels. Its histogram graph
will show a shift toward the left side of the
chart.
For eighteen
years I have been noting that dilation of blood vessels and lymph vessels
results in acceleration of healing
rates. Ultrasound pictures get more
light. It makes some sense that osteoclasts and osteoblasts as
well as adult stem cells all are BLOOD CELLS, thus TRAPPED in the blood vessels
unless dilation of vessels occurs so these miracle worker blood cells can
pop out of little doorways into the interstitial spaces and thus do some
healing. THIS IS THE FIRST MACHINE
SYSTEM HOWEVER THAT CAN CONFIRM OR DENY MY IMPRESSION OF LIGHTENED IMAGES
AS THE PIN HEAD VESSEL SIGNS DILATE.
A.
All the machine parameters are printed on screen, thus
amplification, gamma, frequency, depth, width, and special functions can
be certified as NOT CHANGED from image to
image. A certified pre therapy
image can be obtained, then after therapy a certified post therapy image
can be obtained.
B.
Histograms of selected targets pre and post can confirm or deny
lightening (dilations) or no changes.
My favorite targets are either nerve roots, or
facets. I simply take the aim
box and place it precisely over the desired target, pre, then post, and of
course print the histograms with the pre and post
pictures.
