  We study a tentative generally covariant quantum field theory, denoted the
T-Theory, as a tool to investigate the consistency of quantum general
relativity. The theory describes the gravitational field and a minimally
coupled scalar field; it is based on the loop representation, and on a certain
number of quantization choices. Four-dimensional diffeomorphism-invariant
quantum transition probabilities can be computed from the theory. We present
the explicit calculation of the transition probability between two volume
eigenstates as an example. We discuss the choices on which the T-theory relies,
and the possibilities of modifying them.
