[0049] As this invention is susceptible to embodiments of many different forms, it is intended that the present disclosure be considered as an example of the principles of the invention and not intended to limit the invention to the specific embodiments shown and described.
[0050] The headset system according to the present invention is a dichotomous wearable biomedical imaging technology: the Physician headset and the patient headset. The goal is to allow the physician and the patient to conduct the sclera exam for routine cancer screening untethered from a PC, laptop, tablet, etc. This wireless functionality allows the doctor and the patient to enjoy an anxiety free user experience, free from worry about becoming entangled in power cords or wires hanging from the headset. In a wireless system, there are no tripping hazards for the physician, the patient, or medical staff. This attention to detail has utility in reducing product liability. It should also serve to encourage faithful usage of this form factor for active surveillance for cancer screening over the course of a lifetime. Providing there is sufficient battery charge, the wearable technology system should be able to proceed regardless of geographic distance between the two-headset system.
[0051] One embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 1-4. The patient headset 10 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 while FIGS. 3 and 4 show the physician headset 110. The patient headset 10 is the source of the patient biomedical digital camera data that is used by the physician to screen the patient organs and glands for tumor biomarkers. The patient headset 10 includes a headset housing 20 having a housing shell 22 and includes finger slots 34 allowing ample room for the male or female patient to comfortably manipulate the eyelid, to remove unnecessary video noise such as eyelids, eyelashes, etc. The finger slots 34 may be disposed on any portion of the headset system housing shell 22. A microphone 35 may be disposed on the patient headset 10 for allowing audio input to the headset system. Although the microphone 35 is shown on the bottom portion of the shell housing, the microphone 35 may be disposed anywhere on or attached to the patient headset 10. FIG. 1 shows the finger slots 34 at a housing bottom while FIG. 2 includes the finger slots at the top and side portions of the shell housing. The patient headset 10 includes a headset plate 30 having a plate perimeter, a headset plate exterior surface and a headset plate interior surface 32. The headset plate 30 is secured to the housing shell 22 along the plate perimeter. The patient headset 10 includes a headset securing bracket 36 for engaging a securing device for donning the patient headset during the sclera exam. The patient headset includes a bilateral digital camera system, namely a left camera 50 and a right camera as depicted 52. The patient headset 10 includes a patient headset power source 70, a video processing system 80, a receiving/transmission communication system 82 and a CPU 88 for processing information in the headset. The patient headset 10 includes a memory storage drive 90, a circuit board 32 for integrating power source 70, video processing system 80, receiving/transmission communication system circuit 82, left camera 50, right camera 52, CPU 88 and memory storage 90. The patient may control the functions of the patient headset 10 with the control panel 40 having a combination of buttons 42, 44, and 46 which may include any hardware attachments suitable for the function like a wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, or any material technology known by one skilled in the art for input functionality. A map template database may be disposed in the memory storage 90 or in a physician headset in wireless communication with the patient headset 10. The map template database includes data specifying anatomical location of a patient tumor using sclera scans of a patient sclera and iris. The video processing system can capture high resolution images from the left camera and the right camera and integrate with a map template system for use by a medical doctor, chiropractor, naturopathic doctor, etc. Captured video information on the patient pupil, iris, and sclera is saved in the memory storage drive, labeled by the physician, and stored securely, and provided in a format to match with the map template system in the physician headset. The power source may include a rechargeable battery such as graphene technology, and the housing shell may include a charging port to charge the rechargeable battery, or otherwise wireless charging functionality such as via a wireless charging pad.
[0052] FIGS. 3 and 4 show a physician headset 110 for wearable biomedical imaging functionality for early tumor detection. The physician headset 110 including a headset housing having a housing shell 122 including a nose rest 138, a headset plate (or visor) having a plate perimeter, the headset plate including a headset plate exterior surface 130 and a headset plate interior surface, the headset plate being secured to the housing shell 122 along the plate perimeter and a headset securing bracket 136 for engaging a securing device or “halo” for securing the physician headset 110. A microphone 135 may be disposed on the physician headset 110 for allowing audio input to the headset system. Although the microphone 135 is shown on the bottom portion of the shell housing, the microphone 135 may be disposed anywhere on or attached to the physician headset 110. The physician headset 110 includes a power source 170, a graphics processing system 180, a receiving/transmission communication system 182 for receiving and sending information to a patient headset and a CPU 188 for processing information in the headset. The physician headset includes a memory storage drive 190, a circuit board for integrating the power source 170, the graphics processing system 180, the receiving/transmission communication system 182, the CPU 188 and the memory storage drive 190 and at least one graphical display disposed on the interior surface of the headset plate, at least one graphical display for displaying sclera and iris scans received from a patient headset and overlaid template information based on the iris map and sclera map. The physician may control the functions of the physician headset 110 with the control panel 140 having a combination of buttons 140, 142, 144, 146 which may include wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, joysticks, momentary contact buttons, on/off buttons, or any other type which allows user input. The physician headset includes a map template database disposed in the memory storage drive wherein the map template database includes data specifying anatomical location of a patient tumor using sclera scans of a patient sclera and iris received from the patient headset; and a headset controller panel for controlling functions carried out by the headset. The graphics processing system processes high-resolution images of the patient's eye culled from the patient headset, usually about twelve total digital images per eye, or twenty-four total pictures for both eyes, and display the high-resolution photos in combination with the corresponding iris and sclera template data for review by a physician. The medical doctor, chiropractic doctor, or naturopathic doctor, can don the physician headset at 110, access the sclera scans from the patient headset software system, and the map template database data from the memory storage drive. Captured video patient biodata of the pupil, iris, and sclera, is securely saved in the memory storage drive, labeled by the physician, securely stored in compliance with HIPPA, and provided in a format to match with the iris and sclera map template system. The map template database may be comprised of both a Physical Iridology and a Sclerology map template database. The headset controller panel may be remote and in wireless communication with the receiving/transmission communication system. The at least one graphical display may be mounted on the circuit board. The power source may include a rechargeable battery, and the housing shell may include a charging port to charge the rechargeable battery, or else wireless charging functionality; one skilled in the art would know best what battery technology is appropriate. The physician headset may include wireless communication functionality allowing the doctor to communicate freely with the patient over any geographic distance. The physician headset may operate independent of a PC, laptop, and cellphone or tablet. Communication through physician headset may be secured for HIPAA or other policy compliance. Both the physician and the patient headset will feature secured biometric iris scan access to ensure confidentiality of medical records under HIPAA. The physician headset may include AI/ML functionality and a supervised algorithm. The supervised algorithm will be fed an initial dataset, and this will be used to train the algorithm over time. The learning algorithm will then examine each patient anterior segment (pupil border dynamics, iris markers, and N12 and D5 scleral tumor markers) against the exemplars in the dataset to help predict the statistical probability output of genetic predisposition to future tumor formation. The utility of the algorithm is to benefit society at large, by reducing the appalling rate of cancer misdiagnosis by way of false positives and false negatives from human physicians. Another aspect of the present invention is directed to an independent wearable biomedical imaging system for early tumor detection the system comprising a physician headset 110 having a headset housing 130 having a housing shell 122 including a nose rest 138, a headset plate 130 (or visor) having a plate perimeter, the headset plate 130 including a headset plate exterior surface and a headset plate interior surface, the headset plate 130 being secured to the housing shell 122 along the plate perimeter. The physician headset 110 includes a headset securing bracket 136 for engaging a securing device for donning the physician headset comprised of a natural and robust material. The securing device may be a strap or a hard frame or “halo” ideally made of natural material suitable for securing the patient headset securely to the patient's head for maximum comfort for the user. The physician headset 110 includes a power source 170, a graphics processing system 180, a receiving/transmission communication system 182 for receiving and sending information to a patient headset and a CPU FIG. 4 188 for processing information in the physician headset. The physician headset 110 includes a memory storage drive 190, a circuit board 154 for integrating the power source 170, the graphics processing system 180, the receiving/transmission communication system 182, the CPU 188 and the memory storage drive 190 and at least one graphical display 150, 152 disposed on the interior surface of the headset plate 130, the at least one graphical display 150, and 152 for displaying patient sclera and iris scans received from a patient headset and overlaid template information iris and sclera maps 6 and 8 and 9 respectively. The physician may control the functions of the physician headset with the control panel 140 having a combination of buttons 142, 144, 146 which may include wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, joysticks, momentary contact buttons, on/off buttons, or any other type which allows user input as best determined by one skilled in the art. The physician headset includes a map template database disposed in the memory storage drive 190 wherein the map template database includes data specifying anatomical location of a patient tumor using sclera scans of a patient sclera and iris received from the patient headset; and a headset controller panel for controlling functions carried out by the headset. The graphics processing system 180 processes high-resolution digital images of the patient biodata from the patient headset, and can display the high-resolution image data in combination with corresponding template data for review by a physician. The physician can don the physician headset, visually access the sclera scans from the patient headset and the map template database data from the memory storage drive 190. Captured video information of the patient pupil, iris, and sclera, is saved in the memory storage drive, labeled by the physician, and stored securely to protect patient medical records confidentiality in compliance with the HIPAA. The patient biodata is provided in a format to match with the map template system. There are ample finger slots on the patient headset 34 for the patient to comfortably insert fingers to lift up on the eyelid, pull down on the eye lid, pull laterally on the eyelid, in order to remove unwanted noise from the digital camera system that are disposed in the patient headset housing 22. The patient headset includes a cavity containing a left camera 50, a right camera 52, a battery 70, a video processing system 80, a receiving/transmission circuit 82 and a patient headset CPU 88 for controlling the patient headset, and a small fan or other cooling system to keep the electronics from overheating and causing discomfort for the user. The video processing system captures high resolution images from the left camera 50 and the right camera 52 and integrates with the iris and sclera map template. With each sclera exam, a supervised learning algorithm may learn to feature recognize and feature extract the pupil, iris, and sclera tumor biomarkers that indicate genotype predisposition to tumors based on the science of Physical Iridology, as well as “real time” early tumor formation in the patient organs and glands using the gold-standard N12 and D5 histopathological tumor biomarkers. The algorithm would amass an ever-increasing quantity of patient digital imagery biodata upon each patient sclera exam, whereupon it could surpass even the most experienced human Sclerologist in feature recognition and feature extraction of tumor biomarkers. The algorithm would ideally be utilized to help the chiropractor, naturopathic doctor, and medical doctor, generate accurate sclera reports on statistical probability of genetic predisposition to cancer, as well as evidence of “real time” cancer formation, with minimal errors that typically accompany patient cancer detection by doctors alone.
[0053] FIG. 5 shows an exemplar Physical Iridology map 600 including a chart 602 presenting bi-laterally each eye of the patient FIG. 6, and the corresponding zone of each internal bodily organ and gland location 604, 606. FIG. 7 shows the exemplar Sclerology map by Grand Medicine 608. FIG. 8 depicts an exemplar of the type of template that would be available in the physician headset 610. FIG. 9 depicts the right sclera map that will be used in the physician headset as a reference for each patient examination 612.
[0054] The FIG. 10 slide 614 shows an exemplar patient sclera lower quadrant depicting tumor biomarkers 616.
[0055] The FIG. 11 eye drawing 620 depicts a clinical drawing of a patient exhibiting the N6 scleral tumor biomarker 626 in the right lower quadrant of the sclera 624. Iris 622 is also shown.
[0056] FIG. 12 shows the exemplar histopathological N12 tumor biomarkers 502-524 (even) discovered by world leading Sclerologist Dr. Mehlmauer. These represent the gold-standard in tumor biomarkers that can show evidence of subclinical neoplasms in the body organs and glands “years before patient pain symptoms.” The biomarkers shown in FIG. 12 are as follows:
[0057] Encapsulations in slide 502 show an enclosure of a potentially wide variety of materials, from fatty cells to parasites. The sign can indicate (and often does) benign circumstances. They can also be associated with malignancy (i.e., they can open, invade, and metastasize);
[0058] Perpendiculars in slide 504 show tumor development, which may be benign or malignant. A topostabile sign that may occur in any Quadrant. With this sign, there is a 97% chance of the tumor being benign;
[0059] Latent Neoplasm or Pale Fine Webbing in slide 506, this topolabile sign shows a significant potential for neoplastic tissue to develop. High emotional stress is frequently involved with the appearance of this sign;
[0060] N1 (n=neoplasm) in slide 508, Fine Webbing is the first clear sign that neoplasm is developing. Look for the fine-mesh webbing that is clearly etched. With other appropriate signs, symptoms and studies to confirm, active neoplasm is indicated. The presence of other “N” signs always helps confirm neoplasm activity, although malignancy can be shown by one marker only. The N1 is associated with mildew-type fungi;
[0061] N2 in slide 510, Large Webbing is signed by an enlarged version of the fine Webbing sign. The webbing may be quite large. This sign is most often seen in GI and Urogenital organ areas. Certain types of powerfully life-negative health-destroying bacteria are associated with this sign;
[0062] N3 in slide 512, Half Moon is a topolabile sign showing neoplasm presence as a crescent shaped portion of a line. The line will be moderate-to-heavy in thickness, and can appear within or at the end of a line. (Be careful in your observations: beginning students tend to find Half Moons and other “N” signs everywhere—even where they are not!) Flukes are often associated with this sign;
[0063] N4 in slide 514, the Bulwark is a neoplasm marker resembling the bulwark structure under bridges or otherwise in building construction. It is identified as usually medium to-thick branching straightish lines that seem to be connected-at-the-joints. They can be found in any quadrant. The N4 is topostabile, indicating that the lesion is located wherever the sign is found. Worms (P10) are often associated with this sign;
[0064] N5 in slide 516, the Thickening Line is identified by the unusual fact that, unlike most sclera lines (that are thickest at their base, and thin out as they approach the iris), it thickens as it approaches the iris. It is topostabile. Some very nasty bacteria (P4) are always associated with the N5;
[0065] N6 in slide 518, the Barb is a tiny marking on the end of a line, typically a Thickening Line (N5), indicating an active malignancy. This marking is topostabile. The line that it derives from will often show negative pathology that contributed to the development of the malignancy, like drug abuse or parasites, etc. Somehow, certain fungi (P5) are always found in situations where this sign is seen;
[0066] N7 in slide 520, the Stubby is another topolabile neoplasm marker. It seems always to be associated with mold-type fungi (P8). This sign, although smallish, is either moderately thick or very thick, and appears like a cut-off stubby branch of a tree, coming out at a right angle, perpendicular to the trunk;
[0067] N8 in slide 522, Right Angle is often a dramatic-appearing marker showing malignant neoplasm. It locates the lesion (topostabile). In identifying it, be sure the angle is clearly seen and not much rounded at all. Usually, with this sign, combinations of three different parasites are common, including bacteria and fungi; and
[0068] N9 in slide 524, the Detour is a malignant neoplasm marker that resembles a wiring diagram sign. The lesion is not necessarily where this sign is seen (topolabile). Worms (P10), more than the other parasites, are most often associated with this sign;
[0069] D5, (d=drug) Drug-Induced Neoplasm is also a topostabile sign, in this case showing that drug was involved in the development of the neoplasm. Malignancy is indicated, and tests should be run if the disease has not yet been medically diagnosed. However, many medical tests are too gross to find some early-stage malignancies. Begin natural high-raw veggie diet and life-positive lifestyle immediately. The D5 tumor biomarker is not presented in the FIG. 12. The Pupil Border Dynamics are assessed for the following tumor biomarkers:

[0071] The iris tumor biomarkers are presented as follows: FIG. 18—Step Lacuna—Also called “Ladder”, “Shingle”, and “Stair-step” Lacuna, this marker has the appearance of steps in a stepladder, shingles on a roof, or stone steps in a garden. Most often seen attached to the Wreath, the sign indicates the possible development of cysts or tumors, which are somewhat more likely to be malignant than benign. Shown here is a potential brain area pathology;
[0072] FIG. 19—Pancreatic Triad 2—Predisposition to difficulties with gastric and pancreatic secretions, characterized by marked hypergastrinemia, gastric hyper-secretion, peptic ulceration, and diarrhea, caused by a gastrin-producing tumor (gastrinoma) of the pancreas or duodenal wall. The tumors may be single or multiple. Over ⅔ of the gastrinomas are malignant tumors and are commonly spread to the liver (shown by liver Transversal) and nearby lymph nodes. This disorder may occur at any age, but it is more likely to appear between 30 and 60, depending on the individual's lifestyle and emotional states. Possible symptoms are abdominal pain, diarrhea, internal bleeding, fatigue and weakness, yellow fat in the stool, and weight loss. (Use the sclera for differential Dx.);
[0073] FIG. 20—Beak Lacuna—This topostabile marker looks like the curved beak of certain birds. It is sometimes rounded on the outer end and but always pointed on the inner end (toward the Wreath). It suggests something a bit more (at least potentially) serious than the common Lacuna, such as a possible benign tumor formation. If a Beak Lacuna penetrates the Wreath, which it can do and sometimes does, there is much greater potential for harm, like bowel malignancy;
[0074] FIG. 21—Lance/Torpedo Lacuna—The “Lance” and “Torpedo” Lacunas have the same meaning. They just look a bit different. The Torpedo Lacuna is more rounded on both ends, while the Lance Lacuna is lance-like in appearance, with points at both ends. They tend to be seen in and around the R iris between 7:30 8:30Z3, involving the pylorus, duodenum, pancreas and gallbladder—although other locations are possible. They indicate potential abscess and tumor. As with other Hard Markers, they can show active pathology when Reflexers and Physiologics are present;
[0075] FIG. 22—Transversals and their Variants Transversals can be “vascularized”, meaning taking on the appearance of blood vessels, with red inside. When red, they show actual blockage of blood vessels within local tissues. There is also a tendency for malignancy, tumor and other degenerative processes—especially when seen near other markings. In other words, Transversals seem to amplify the weakness or dysfunction when near other markings. They are a sign of at least potential significant irritation when seen alone. Other forms of transversals, besides the Red or Vascularized, include Root, Fork, and Rooftop;
[0076] FIG. 23—Root Transversal—This sign shows generally benign tumors, congestion, obstruction, inflammation and deformations. These are usually seen in the liver, spleen and gonad areas;
[0077] FIG. 24—Asparagus Lacuna—This unusual Lacuna, which looks like an asparagus tip, can occur anywhere, but most often is seen in the brain and genital areas. It suggests a tendency to various chronic, degenerative conditions, including (when in the brain) tumor. If you see one in brain areas, check for unusual symptoms such as dizziness, fainting spells, fluctuating blood pressure, and pressure on the ears. If tumor, the scleras should show the Straight Fork and very high congestion sign. If these appear along with symptoms, send the client in for MRI or CAT scan.
[0078] Each patient sclera exam will include system-wide noninvasive assessment of organs and glands, using the patient bilateral digital camera system in the patient headset 50, 52. FIG. 14 depicts the exemplar gold-standard reference for tumor biomarkers showing in the pupil. The utility of this particular chart is the medial flattening 390 can provide non-invasive evidence of tumor formation in the patient. Accordingly, the physician headset algorithm should also be trained with the gold-standard pupil border dynamics 390.
[0079] FIG. 15 is a flowchart for illustrative purposes depicting the typical steps performed in the routine patient sclera exam for early cancer detection. This exam should only be performed by the chiropractor, naturopathic doctor, and medical doctor who is certified in the sciences of Physical Iridology and Sclerology. This exact same pathway will be used to label the datasets and train the supervised learning algorithm. The sequential steps of the examination include obtaining digital photos of the anterior segment of the patient pupil, iris, and sclera 400. Assessment of patient pupil border dynamics for established tumor biomarkers wherein the presence of tumor biomarkers will prompt a “yes” or “no” sequence 402. The next step involves examination of the patient iris for known tumor biomarkers suggesting genetic predisposition future pathology and actual tumor markers 410. If iris tumor biomarkers are detected based upon the labeled dataset both the human clinician, as well as the supervised learning algorithm 414 the next step is to generate a statistical probability of genotype vulnerability 418. If the human doctor and the learning algorithm determine that no iris tumor biomarkers are present 412 both the human physician and the algorithm move to the final stage 416. The final stage is to bilaterally assess each patient sclera quadrants for any of the thirteen N12 and D5 tumor biomarkers 416 (See FIG. 12 exemplars). If no scleral tumor biomarkers are detected, advance to 422. If any N12 or D5 tumor biomarkers are detected, 420. This concludes the routine sclera exam for cancer screening. The physician reviews the patient biodata, and prepares a sclera report based upon the findings 424. The physician may schedule a follow-up appointment with the patient to review the cancer screening findings 424.
[0080] FIG. 16 shows a physician using medical holography, one of the features of some embodiments of the wearable technology, for examining actual patient images along the x, y, z axis of real space where a holographic image of an eye 66 or any other organ as shown in samples of the brain and heart, can be viewed by the physician 320 at any angle and manipulated by the physician 320.
[0081] FIG. 17 shows a complete headset exemplar with vertical cranium support 64 which may further secure the headset on a patient or physician. An “off ear” bilateral audio system 68 is disposed on the physician headset and patient headset, and may include earphones, earbuds or off-the-ear speakers for listening to the patient or physician, programming material, control material and the like, enabling effective and high-quality audio communication between the physician headset and the patient headset regardless of geographic distance. One of the headset controls 42, 44, 46, 142, 144, 146 may be used for control of audio input, audio output sound levels, and the like. There may be any number of headset controls (buttons, switches, joysticks, etc.) to allow for patient and physician control of the corresponding headset and communication between the patient headset and physician headset.
[0082] FIG. 3-4 show a front and rear view of the physician headset 110. FIG. 13 shows a physician 320 wearing a stethoscope as well the physician headset 110 about to initiate a sclera exam with a patient three thousand miles away from the doctor in the comfort of her home 300. The typical sclera exam for early malignant tumor detection takes about ten minutes and would generally proceed as follows. The physician dons the physician headset 110 and initiates the examination using solely the headset technology untethered from a computer or laptop. Both the physician headset 110 and the patient headset 10 include secured biometric iris scan access for HIPAA compliance. With the use of voice command technology, wireless mouse, or wireless keyboard, the physician can access patient medical records and also patient digital image information from the patient headset. The physician headset also includes the most current Physical Iridology map (FIG. 6) and sclera maps (FIGS. 8 and 9) as templates which can be superimposed over the patient images in the headset to increase accuracy in anatomically placing the correct location of the tumor in the organs and glands; this having utility by helping mitigate medical misdiagnosis by the physician. The physician 320 may access the map data template on the graphical display 150, 152 of the physician headset. The physician 320 reviews the patient image information and the physician may then select an appropriate iris or sclera template based on examination findings. The method includes the physician 320 overlaying the patient's digital iris and sclera biodata from the sclera exam with the chosen template and comparing patient information against established gold-standard tumor biomarkers in the labelled dataset. The physician 320, having captured the patient digital imagery biodata, may use the wireless keyboard or wireless mouse to label the patient pictures in the medical records file stored in the software, and securely save the patient biodata (cloud) for later retrieval of the data for analysis. The algorithm continues to amass more and more learning experience with each sclera exam, until it amasses a sufficient database (hundreds of cancer patient exams) to soon outperform any human chiropractor, naturopathic doctor, and medical doctor in speed and accuracy of digital pathomics to determine statistical probability of cancer.
