The main treatments of cancer include surgical intervention, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. These treatments can be applied separately or in a combined manner. Another...
Gas therapy (GT) has attracted increasing attention in recent years as a new cancer treatment method with favorable therapeutic efficacy and reduced side effects. Several gas molecules, such as nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and sulfur dioxide (...
Light therapy is a non-pharmacological therapy that exposes people to artificial light; mode of delivery and form of light vary. These investigators examined the safety and efficacy of light therapy (in comparison with no treatment, other types of light therapy, 2nd-generation anti-depressants, mel...
Mesoporous silica coated single-walled carbon nanotubes as a multifunctional light-responsive platform for cancer combination therapy Adv Funct Mater, 25 (2015), pp. 384-392 Google Scholar [51] A.M. Villalba-Rodriguez, R. Parra-Saldivar, I. Ahmed, K. Karthik, Y.S. Malik, K. Dhama, H....
Due to the poor drug delivery efficiency of anti-metastasis therapy and the limited response rate of immunotherapy for breast cancer, effective treatment remains a formidable challenge. In this work, engineered macrophages (Oxa(IV)@ZnPc@M) carrying nanomedicine containing oxaliplatin prodrug and ...
Partnering with Washington, the camera was used to find breast cancer tumours in mice, using a near-infrared fluorescent dye that binds specifically to the type of breast cancer in question. Seeing through the eyes of the butterfly: Taking inspiration from nature, US researchers have developed a...
For over the three decades, various researchers have aimed to construct a thermal (or bioheat) model of breast cancer, but these models have mostly lacked clinical data. The present study developed a computational thermal model of breast cancer based on
[66] developed a multimodal spectroscopy (MMS) instrument based on 830 nm diode laser for exciting tissue through MMS probe and collecting the spectra for the diagnosis of diseases like atherosclerosis and breast cancer. Furthermore, 980 nm diode lasers gained a good degree of acceptance in ...
In this article, an application of this technology to thermal ablative therapy for cancer is described. By tuning the nanoshells to strongly absorb light in the near infrared, where optical transmission through tissue is optimal, a distribution of nanoshells at depth in tissue can be used to ...
