Laser Destroys Cancer Cells Circulating in the Blood -- IEEE Spectrum - skeeba - 06-14-2019
Quote:Tumor cells that spread cancer via the bloodstream face a new foe: a laser beam, shined from outside the skin, that finds and kills these metastatic little demons on the spot.
In a study published today in Science Translational Medicine, researchers revealed that their system accurately detected these cells in 27 out of 28 people with cancer, with a sensitivity that is about 1,000 times better than current technology. That’s an achievement in itself, but the research team was also able to kill a high percentage of the cancer-spreading cells, in real time, as they raced through the veins of the participants.

El cáncer es curable si se detectaba tiempo, la ciencia ha avanzado mucho en investigaciones contra el cancer...

Cancer will come back if you don't change your diet, lifestyle, living conditions, mental health and more. Removing cancer cells is only a temporary solution, sooner or later it will spread to a place where it can't be removed and cause serious damages, such as the brain.

It's awesome to see more breakthroughs in cancer research like this. My Grandfather died of leukemia, and my Mother had Melanoma, so it's important to me and many other people. A while back I also saw another type of laser that could destroy skin cancer.

Although around 6 weeks old, this Is excellent news.
I do hope they find a cure for all types of cancer, a lot sooner than later.
