The
core of any successful demonstration of scientific evidence is research. At
MTI we can search the medical and scientific literature quickly, executing complicated
medical or chemical searches with surgeon-like precision for our clients. We
are specialists at finding “needles” in the medical and scientific
literature haystacks. Our highly trained professional staff, with decades of
experience, insures that you get the relevant and reliable information you need
by tracking down journal abstracts, articles, textbook chapters, online databases,
grey literature (brochures, pamphlets, non-indexed material) and any other pieces
of information that are relevant to your subject. And, for those cases that
require hands-on research, we are only minutes away from a multitude of major
facilities including The National Library of Medicine, the National Institutes
of Health, The Library of Congress, and numerous regulatory agencies, providing
us (and you) with access to archival holdings and the latest in scientific and
medical findings. We provide you with copies of all relevant results in the
form of abstracts and other references tailored to your specifications. After
reviewing the information, if you need full-text versions of any references,
we will get the information you need through our document retrieval services.
For more information, please contact
MTI today.
At the heart
of any investigative research into the medical literature is a solid bibliography
packed with the most relevant and reliable citations available. Our MTI researchers
are the best in their field and know how to locate and target the available
findings to provide you with the evidence you need to ensure that no relevant
piece of information has been overlooked. Not only can MTI retrieve your citations
for you, but we collate the articles, excerpts from reference texts and other
documents, and arrange them in the order that is most convenient, complete with
a written summary, highlighting those which are most relevant. We also prepare
and organize them for your convenience in virtually any format you specify,
including spiral-bound hardcopy, disc, html or pdf. This way you spend a minimum
of time poring over the medical or scientific literature findings and maximum
time on other issues in your case. To find out how we can meet your needs, please
contact MTI today.
Our
document retrieval services can locate any document anywhere in the world and
even those hard-to-find documents that are not readily available. Obscure journals,
articles in other languages, rare textbooks, and items in the grey literature
are located with ease. MTI is situated in the information capital of the world
and can speedily find and retrieve virtually any document at a very reasonable
cost. By taking advantage of MTI’s document retrieval service, you save
yourself, time, money, and most importantly, the worry of not having the necessary
information your case requires. We can also provide documents in virtually any
format you request for your optimum convenience. Additionally, many government
agencies require that a Freedom of Information Request (FOI) be filed to obtain
agency documents. MTI can retrieve these records for you and allow you to maintain
complete confidentiality. Our document retrieval service ensures that you have
the all the evidence your research or case requires at your fingertips. For
more information, please contact

MEDICAL CASE REVIEW
Would you like to know more about your medical condition or have knowledge of
the treatment options that are available to you? Are you concerned that you
are getting only one side of an issue or that your options are being unnecessarily
limited? MTI is in no way affiliated with any pharmaceutical company or other
healthcare product corporation, which makes us an excellent non-biased consulting
resource. What we can do is provide you with the knowledge of the standard treatments
and the most recent treatments available, including regular and alternative
therapies that might be helpful to you. A written report in easy-to-read language
is provided and documented with peer-reviewed literature, suitable for presentation
or discussion with your medical professional.
Are you concerned that you or a loved one are taking too many prescription drugs or that the medications are not working as planned?

An MTI written report will provide a detailed assessment of your medications in light of your current medical condition, including any adverse effects that might be related to your prescription drugs. This consultation is not intended to take the place of your prescribing physician but is intended as an aid to help you and your doctor make better treatment choices. We can help you. Please contact MTI today.
