Breast cancer screening

04 October 2018, North Rhine-Westphalia, Duisburg: Filiz Demir (l), blind Medical Touch Examiner (MTU) at Discovering Hands, examines the breast of a patient. In contrast to the normal cancer screening examination, an MTU systematically and extensively scans the breast for 40 minutes and can thus find about 50 percent more and much smaller tissue changes than a doctor. The method according to which Demir works has now been tested for its effectiveness for the first time.
