1. A system for remote ultrasonic scanning and informational imaging comprising a wearable scanner module conforming to a target imaging area of a patient that supports a plurality of ultrasonic imaging transducers about the target site, said scanner module, and plurality of ultrasonic imaging transducers all being affixed to and supported on a wearable structure capable of holding and supporting said scanner module and plurality of ultrasonic imaging transducers in consistent and repeatable geometry, said wearable scanner module comprising:
a brassiere shaped garment having a first support cup and a second support cup, each said support cup connected to an arrangement of attachment straps that can be donned in a closely fitted manner about a user's upper torso;
a first series of ultrasonic imaging transducers in electrical communication with a data bus and supported in a first spiral array on said first support cup, said first series of ultrasonic image transducers adapted to collected scanned data identifying cell and tissue densities within the target imaging area;
a second series of ultrasonic imaging transducers in electrical communication with said data bus and supported in a second spiral array on said second support cup, said second series of ultrasonic image transducers adapted to collected scanned data identifying cell and tissue densities within the target imaging area;
an electronics module removably affixed to said brassiere shaped garment and comprising:
a central processor;
an input connection for providing electronic communication between said central processor and said data bus; and
an output connection adapted for enabling electrical communication between said central processor with an external computer processing resource;, whereas said plurality of ultrasonic imaging transducers are aligned in a manner to provide multiple reference points and provide multiple consistent images over time based on differences in a size or a density from a baseline; and, whereas said external computer processing resource is capable of obtaining the data signals, summation of the data into readable images, as well as to register permanent reference features of the body and changes to the reference features of the body over time.
