WHAT IS ARDK? 

is a functional test that uses the Ryodoraku or Nakatani method. Computerized testing using Ryodoraku is considered one of the proven methods of functional diagnostics.

RYODORAKU

RYODORAKU means a line of high electrical conductivity. In 1950, Japanese doctor Yoshio Nakatani discovered these lines, which actually overlap with the meridians of classic acupuncture. His idea, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, allows for the checking of one’s health from bioactive points (BAPs), based on the 12 major meridians bilaterally, generating an analysis of how energy moves in major organs. The data obtained is then processed using special software, and results can be seen on the computer screen.

HISTORY

The development of ARDK® in the 1960s to the present was to devise a rapid method of health profiling, with maximum information for the Russian military and preventive screening for the general population with high reliability and low cost.

The statistical evaluation of clinical data collected from 1977 to 1991 in various health institutions was done by scientists, doctors, and experts using modern scientific methods.

In the mid-1990s, Taiwan added more information to the existing data, and improved the program, taking into account the peculiarities of Eastern and Western medicine.

ARDK® HARDWARE & SOFTWARE COMPLEX

ARDK® consists of hardware and software complexes. Furthermore, it has two databases:

  1. the database with renewable patient data
  2. knowledge base, which stores profiles of different diseases

On average, one set of data from a patient (conclusion) spends between 100 to 1000 or more cases, depending on the complexity of the analysis (one patient could have a number of different diseases superimposed on each other).

PRINCIPLE OF ARDK®

This research is a method for determining the state of the functions of organs and systems by measuring the skin’s electrical resistance in biologically active points (BAPs).

Electro-dermal resistance is a measure of the degree to which the skin opposes the passage of an electric current.

ARDK® draws a statistical relationship between measurements taken from the skin to internal organ function.

Knowledge Base (server) is composed of multiple images of a number of different filters/conclusions (disease).

The imputed data reaches the knowledge base, is sifted through the filters, and as a result, presented in the form of probabilities of conclusions superimposed on each other.

When transferring data to the server for processing, it automatically detects the presence of a virtual user account.

After processing the data, measurements (clicks) are automatically read by the reference count and deducted from the virtual user account.

WHY ARDK®?

  1. Accurate – up to 95%, backed up by 50 years of extensive evidence-based research and a large database
  2. Efficient – identifies the stage of imbalance even in latent form or very early stage when classic/conventional tests are still inconclusive, shows changes in the body as a response to treatment while treatment is ongoing
  3. Practical – 2 to 5-minute checkup, no downtime, economical and inexpensive
  4. Safe – painless, non-invasive, non-radioactive, safe for pregnant women and children (is in fact used by Pediatricians in Russia as children cannot express how they feel)
  5. Forecasts – shows probable underlying causes, detects imbalances before symptoms appear
  6. Evolving – continuous research and upgrading
  7. Portable – first-class health examination anywhere, results are stored on the server and can be retrieved anywhere online
  8. User-friendly – multilingual, assistants can easily learn to do the test and doctors analyze the data
  9. Comprehensive – gives detailed health information about the whole body including the psych-emotional status
  10. Flexible–functional medical diagnostics, and psycho-emotional assessment for manpower resourcing, can be used by both Western medicine practitioners and Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners
  11. Can be used for monitoring and research purposes

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO IDENTIFY TRENDS?

Hereditary factors, environmental pollution, and lifestyle (poor diet, vices, sedentary living) contribute to the development of chronic diseases. Diabetes, for example, does not appear overnight. Changes in the body take place, and over time (maybe years) these eventually become symptomatic.

The idea of a health profiling system is to identify any early warning signals so as to allow earlier preventive action or intervention.

HOW LONG DOES THE TEST TAKE?

The actual measurement takes approximately two (2) to five (5) minutes depending on the skill of the technician. Results are available almost immediately depending on the speed of the internet.

HOW ACCURATE IS ARDK®?

The device can gather about 50 values within 2 seconds of touching the skin and then can obtain an average value. The effective accuracy rate is up to 95%. Accuracy should be considered bearing in mind that the patient may not have experienced the symptoms of an illness which in its early stage.

HOW CAN A TEST BE SO QUICK AND ACCURATE AT THE SAME TIME?

Tests come out fast since electro-dermal resistance is easily measured and established profiles of diseases are already saved in the server. By simply connecting to the internet, sending the data collected, comparing them with the established profiles, and having a set of formulas already prepared, results are easily retrieved.

Many scientific professionals doubt the technology’s abilities and immediately dismiss it as fake. With conventional diagnostic tests, samples may be taken and treated with chemicals and undergo procedures that take hours. Some are visual and can be observed in real-time but films are developed hours after.

When certain conditions appear in the ARDK® report it confirms that the condition is present, was present with a chance of recurrence, or is developing in the patient’s body. Quantitatively it shows probabilities instead of actual values in conventional units.

HOW FREQUENTLY CAN A PATIENT UNDERGO ARDK® TESTING?

ARDK® can be used as often as needed from several times a day for monitoring at different times of the day or for checking reactions to certain changes in environmental and internal conditions to monitoring responses to medical treatment and therapies of up to 6 months. Normal monitoring is recommended every month.
