The shirt used a microwave antenna device attached inside. Data on each chest will be collected by microprocessors and transmitted to the computer.

Professor Elias Siores, CRMI Director, said: "The chest imaging bra is an invention that helps the wearer discover breast cancer at the earliest possible stage, to help treat it promptly. A simple, efficient, inexpensive device, and provides readable information ".

According to Siores, the device will be much cheaper than having a woman be examined by a remote-controlled electronic arm. This is also one of the latest products in a series of new electronic health improvement products announced by the company.

The German company Philips has also created a heart rate monitoring underwear. It not only collects health information but can also call the emergency number if a problem is found.
