because by the time tumours are discovered it is often too late to cure them. Radiation therapy typically accounts for 10% of the cost of cancer treatment, but more than half of the cure, so it’s relatively inexpensive compared to chemotherapy, surgery or immunotherapy. Radiation therapy will...
When my mother received radiation for breast cancer, I saw her breast become hot and blistered. The area that was radiated was also hard as a rock and remained that way for years. Ten years later, when I discovered I had breast cancer, I chose not to get theconventional cancer treatmentm...
How does alpha radiation affect the atomic number? How does ionizing radiation cause double strand breaks? How was CMB radiation first discovered? How do melanocytes respond to UV radiation? How are energy and frequency of electromagnetic radiation related? How is alpha radiation used in everyday ...
Eventually, doctors and patients started developing radiation sickness, and the medical community knew something was wrong. The problem is that X-rays are a form of ionizing radiation. When normal light hits an atom, it can't change the atom in any significant way. But when an X-ray hits ...

[91] used a real-world study design and discovered that the overall mortality risk was higher for focal treatment than for active surveillance or watchful waiting, indicating that the latter could offer OS benefits. Nevertheless, a careful examination of the literature revealed that there have been...

The ever-curious Anton van Leeuwenhoek discovered bacteria while examining a sample of the plaque between his own teeth. He waxes poetic in his writing, describing the bacterial colony on his pearly whites as "a little white matter, which is as thick as if 'twere batter" [source: Dobell]....
[31,32]. The solubilization power of micelles has been known and used for a long time especially as detergent. Their mechanism of action was discovered in early 1900s. Micelles can be used as drug carriers and as solubilizing agents. However, they cannot be used to tackle other problems ...
