    • 2015 January 29, “جهاز جديد يكشف عن سرطان الثدي و الكبد عن بُعد”, in Al-Maṣr Al-Yawm‎:
      وأوضح أن الجهاز الجديد، الذي يدعى «أكسبلورير»، يعطى أشعه صوتية حيث يقوم بعملية لمس عن بعد لأنه يقبس قوة النسيج عن طريق ذبذبات ميكانيكية دقيقة جدا بفضل الموجات التى تحدث قص داخل الجسم.
      He elucidated that the new device he calls “Explorer” gives sound waves where it undertakes a process of touching from afar for it derives the tissue strength by way of very subtle mechanical oscillations thanks to the waves which cause cutting inside the body.
