ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus and procedure whereby a probe, which in the preferred embodiment is a fiber optic catheter, is used in vivo to acquire intra-cellular data from a host. Under computer control, the system detects the specific nature of the host subject's cell kinetic processes. Cells are assumed to always acquire information about their environs and this information is detected and recognized as constituting friendly or unfriendly environments. Using physical analogies, the computer tracks pairing and unpairing of nucleotide sequences as biological radar. A reference analog is used to vary the view of the data-base so that selected portions or subsets of the available analogies lend themselves to sensory presentation from the computer to the user. Provision is made for interactive human communication with the host's metabolism while microscopic resolution and forecasting are obtained. The method and procedure is analog driven and may be embodied in a variety of hardware and software mixes.
