RODRIGUEZ V., JAVIER et al. FRACTAL GENERALIZATION OF PRE-NEOPLASIC CERVICAL EPITHELIAL CELLS FOR CLINICAL APPLICATION: UMA NOVA METODOLOGIA DE APLICAÇÃO CLÍNICA. rev.fac.med [online]. 2010, vol.18, n.2, pp.173-181. ISSN 0121-5256.

Beginning with the evaluation of fractal dimensions, and applying the concept of variability and Cellular Intrinsic Mathematical Harmony, a mathematical method for clinical application was developed, about the diagnosis of preneoplastic and neoplastic squamous epithelial cervix cells, which improves the ASCUS (Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance) diagnosis. Beginning with a method previously developed for the diagnosis of normal, ASCUS and L-SIL cells, fractal structural permutations with the general Intrinsic Mathematical Harmony (IMH) and variability values for normality and disease were made, looking for the general prototypes of normal cells, premalignant and carcinogen. 5 ASCUS and 5 carcinogen cells of the squamous epithelial cervix were measured. It was found that there are 18 normal prototypes, while there were obtained 44 prototypes for the abnormality, including all stages of evolution to carcinoma. These results were confirmed by comparing the obtained results by the conventional techniques with the results obtained by this methodology; making thinking that it was developed a new methodology that allows to differentiate the distinct types of the squamous epithelial cervix cells (normal or carcinogen).
