Which types of arthritis are suitable for Cytotron treatment?

The Cytotron treatment has been applied to osteoarthritis patients on the clinical trials. The majority of the conditions are related to damaged or deteoriated cartilage, which responds best to Cytotron treatment. Currently the Cytotron can be applied on both knees, or hips, or shoulders, or elbows.

What is the effect of Cytotron on cartilage and the overall condition of the joint?

In patients responding the treatment, there is a noticeable reduction in pain and improvement in mobility after 10-15 sessions. By the end of 21 sessions most patients should be free of pain and not requiring any painkillers. There is a significant improvement in joint mobility. The regenerative effect of Cytotron on cartilage is expected to continue once the treatment period is over. The 21 day sessions are required to initiate the regeneration process by increasing the membrane potential of the cells to a level where command and control center can issue orders for cell division.

How does the Cytotron treatment process take place?

In order to determine the suitability of the Cytotron treatment we need to obtain a dossier that contains personalized information of the patient such as age, sex, weight etc, the diagnosis and the prognosis of the disease based on previous investigations, therapies applied and the outcome, the current situation of the patient with detailed symptoms,  test results and the diagnostic images such as MRI,  X-Ray etc. There will be an initial evaluation of the patient, and if RFQMR is applicable there will be a further appointment with our doctors to discuss the terms and expected outcomes of the treatment.

What are the results of the treated?

As reported in the Journal of the Indian Society of Aerospace Medicine by Wg Cdr VG Vasishta, Dr RV Kumar, and Surg Cdr LJ Pinto, Osteoarthritis patients treated with QMR were evaluated using the Knee Society Scoring System and dynamometry. There was a significant improvement in Pain Score, Total Knee Score, Total Functional Score, Range of Movement and force of extension. The improvement persisted after the Cytotron treatment.

Is there any side effect of Cytotron treatment on arthritis patients?

Over the last 3 years no significant side effect has been noticed among the 500 patients that participated in the clinical trials and treatment. In very few patients minor issues such as temporary redness and itching have been observed.
