JERUSALEM: Israeli medical researchers say they have developed a new technique for blasting cancer tumours from inside out which reduces the risk of the disease returning after treatment.

Tel Aviv University professors Yona Keisari and Itzhak Kelson are about to start clinical trials of a pin-sized radioactive implant that beams short-range alpha radiation from within the tumour.

Unlike conventional radiation therapy, which bombards the body with gamma rays from outside, the alpha particles "diffuse inside the tumour, spreading further and further before disintegrating," a university statement quoted Keisari as saying.

"It's like a cluster bomb -- instead of detonating at one point, the atoms continuously disperse and emit alpha particles at increasing distances."

The university said that the process takes about 10 days and leaves behind only non-radioactive and non-toxic amounts of lead.

"Not only are cancerous cells more reliably destroyed, but in the majority of cases the body develops immunity against the return of the tumour," the statement said.

The wire implant, inserted into the tumour by hypodermic needle, "decays harmlessly in the body," it added.

It went on to say that in pre-clinical trials on mice, one group had tumours removed surgically while another was treated with the radioactive wire.

"When cells from the tumour were reinjected into the subject, 100 percent of those treated surgically redeveloped their tumour, compared to only 50 percent of those treated with the radioactive wire," it said.

"The researchers have had excellent results with many types of cancer models, including lung, pancreatic, colon, breast, and brain tumours."

It added that the procedure would begin clinical trials at Beilinson hospital, near Tel Aviv, "soon."

How do they create lung, pancreatic, colon, breats and brain tumours in the 1st place in order to do the experiment ?

Don't worry, A*Star will produce something in 30 to 40 years' time.

 

[Faidenk]

Don't worry, A*Star will produce something in 30 to 40 years' time.

And herald it a breakthrough in science and one up for Sinkapore. Reinventing the wheel, that's our forte.

 

[rodent2005]

And the breakthrough product will be a kway chup sauce for Vivian's next generation of hawkers.

I wonder when the Arab world is going to invent something useful.

 

[no_faith]

I wonder when the Arab world is going to invent something useful.

they nvr do anything, laid back, screwing, drink, short hours of work.
they are lucky to step on a oil rich land, now trying to use the money to buy up organization that's all and again doing nothing.

 

[clinton666]

Israel can now unleashed their cancer cluster bomb on Iran's nuclear facilities!

Come to think of it you guys are right. Really, what happened to them since the end of the Islamic Golden Age.

dont hold your breath.

When they ditch their retarded religion.

Thanks Devil Within, you are so learned. Hey this guy in the video is he our Muthukali?

Can't depend on the fucktard Arabs of inventing somethin useful when These filthy rich camel fuckers are busy throwing money away like Hell notes... If not because of oil money, these camel bastards would have been working as road sweepers or construction workers in other countries.. Fuck these Camel Toes..

 

[mako65]

Hahaha..this nano-medi science has been floating around in the news for awhile but haven't seen the real thing yet! All the talk...more like TCSS! Just like the Da Vinci robotic surgeon, it just fizzle up into the thin air...hell lotsa of RnD $ wasted!

In the early days, Islam was never about religion.

They have numerous Arabs to test this procedure.
