The '''Bi-Digital O-Ring Test''' is an ] diagnostic developed by ] and for which he holds ]. There are no published papers in any way validating the claims of Dr Omura and his followers in any independent, refereed journal, and so the diagnostic is widely disregarded by the medical community. |

The test is a form of ] in which the patient attempts to hold together, ideally, thumb and index finger, while the diagnostician, using his own fingers, pries the patient’s digits apart and judges relative strength and weakness under varying circumstances. (A numerical rating is assigned by the diagnostician to his assessment of the relative strength, and this is recorded in each instance as an experimental datum.) |

The varying circumstances include but are no means limited to that referenced explicitly in the patent summary – the patient’s holding a slide of sample material in her free hand while forming the opposing hand into the ‘O-Ring’, There are a number of variations on this central theme. For example, much of Omura’s actvity in recent years has focused on remote application of BDORT and/or other alternative medicines. A paper published in Omura’s journal, for example, uses BDORT to evaluate the healing power of ] Energy as directed by a Qigong Master in ] to healing effect on patients in ]. The evaluation of efficacy was the employ of BDORT. Omura’s paper particularly notes the finding that the remote application of Qigong Energy by the Qigong master over a distance of 5,000 kilometers was affected by the positive or negative energy present on the clothing of the patients being treated. In a number of instances Omura’s findings, via the application of BDORT, were that negative energy in the patient’s clothing, particularly underwear, was problematic, and that the successful application of remote Qigong Energy required the removal of the patient’s clothing. |

The BDORT may also, if necessary, be performed by a skilled practitioner such as Omura over the telephone, thus diagnosing a patient long-distance. In this procedure the patient is instructed to, for example, hold in one hand a suspect substance while Omura performs the BDORT on his own hands, prying his fingers apart, and thus is able to assess the patient's condition. |

The BDORT is capable, according to Omura and his colleagues researches, also of detecting previously undiagnosed and undetectable cancers non-invasively, in approximately five minues, as well as determining, with similar facility, such factors as toxic metal levels, acetylcholine levels, and telomere levels.

Omura has also, as published in his journal, found via the BDORT, that it is possible to capture a special healing power of sunlight, for which his term is ''Special Solar Energy'' on index cards or other paper, termed in his usage ''Special Solar Energy Stored Paper,'' which energy must for maximum efficacy according to his published researches be 'captured' at the ideal times of sunrise and sunset, which, if carefully protected by being aligned so as to maintain its polarity and wrapped in aluminum foil to preserve the captured energy, may be applied to the appropriate acupuncture points to heal various illnesses, not the least of which is various forms of cancer. |

As published, Omura repeatedly claims that he is scientifically able, via the BDORT, to detect cancer sufficiently early that no other test is able to detect it, and similarly, to cure the patient of cancer in early phase such that, in fact, the cancer is never detectable by less sensitive means than the BDORT. |

Similar claims are made, as published in Omura’s journal, that he is able to evaluate acetylcholine levels non-invasively. The technique, as described, is as follows: The patient sits on a chair holding a slide sample of tissue while a diagnostician, an assistant of Omura, shines a laser pointer at the appropriate acupuncture point on the top of her head. This assistant, while shining the laser pointer with his right hand, extends his left hand, forming an O-Ring which Omura then pries apart, thus, according to Omura’s published researches, determining the acetylcholine levels at various points within the patient’s brain. |

|
|
|
|
A persistent theme in many of Omura's papers is that he is able, via the 'Selective Drug Uptake Enhancement Method' to effectively target drugs to particular tissues via stimulation of acupuncture points. The diagnosis of disease, determination of precise appropriate acupuncture points, and results of treatment, are determined via the BDORT. |

The ] of ], in its consideration of the case of ], examined and dismissed any claims of scientific validity for the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test. |
