Dr. Hsien-I Chu, a renowned endocrinologist, was the first president of the university. At present, Mr.  Cancer Institute and Hospital, Tianjin, China. The study demonstrated that: "when the CTLM system was used as an adjunct to mammography in heterogeneously and extremely dense breasts, the sensitivity (detecting cancer) increased significantly." See company website for details of the published clinical report.

About Imaging Diagnostic Systems, Inc.

Imaging Diagnostic Systems, Inc. has developed a revolutionary new imaging device to aid in the detection and management of breast cancer. The CTLM[R] system is a breast imaging system that utilizes patented continuous wave laser technology and computer algorithms to create 3-D images of the breast. The procedure is non-invasive, painless, and does not expose the patient to ionizing radiation or painful breast compression. CT Laser Mammography (CTLM([R])) is designed to be used in conjunction with mammography. It reveals information about blood distribution in the breast and may visualize the process of angiogenesis, which usually accompanies tumor growth.
