摘要: A method for detecting the presence of a gene responsible pathological state; or state itself in patient comprising exposing at least one hair from to fibre X-ray diffraction and changes ultrastructure hair. An instrument (1) itself, using sample, comprising: an source (2) producing beam radiation; sample stage positioning said (3) within beam; detector detect scattering caused by sample; display means (9) associated with displaying output thereof (9a, 9b, 9c 9d); whereby patterns related are displayed interpretation.
