Abstract
An apparatus, system and method for scanning select tissue of a living being with penetrating radiation and employing such radiation to perform one or more medical functions such as diagnosis and treatment of a disease or malady. In one form a computer is employed to analyze electrical signals generated by one or more transducers sensing penetrating radiation after it has penetrated select tissue of a living being and generates control signals which are employed to control further scanning and/or the operation of a surgical device to cause the latter to perform a select operation on select tissue of said living being. In a particular form, two types of radiation are generated, one to effect inspection scanning of select tissue of a living being and the other to effect a surgical operation on select tissue including the tissue scanned after a computer analyzes the inspection scanning signals generated and generates control signals for effecting the controlled surgical operation. Drug units to be employed in the treatment of select maladies are also disclosed.
