It's a way to get the highest potency but the lowest toxicity. You can call it a 'smart tumor bomb.' Even though you'll still get some toxicity, it is much, much lower compared to regular chemotherapy and the potency is much, much higher.

The edges of tumors are where growth occurs, and they tell radiologists whether what they see is a tumor or not. You have to keep all these features intact when you compress the image if it is to be useful.
Bradley J. Lucier
It actually destroys the tumor, and then the body will naturally re-absorb it over a period of time.
Dr. Jami Rubens
We've known for some time that 'total fat' is not the issue. Different kinds of fat affect tumor progression and other aspects of the cancer process in different ways that demand further research.
Karen Collins
We collect breast milk, and then we purify the protein and we add oleic acid to get one complex. It kills tumor cells, but not healthy cells.
Jenny Pettersson
I was absolutely stunned because she told me that day that the tumor was shrinking and she was the picture of optimism that night.
Kathie Lee Gifford
That's when I found out it was a tumor, and that he had fluid on the brain, which was building up and that's why he couldn't walk. You never think your child has a brain tumor. That's not something you entertain.
Bunnie Gleason
We could be in clinical trials this spring to determine safety, ... Two or three years beyond that, we're looking at trials on anti-tumor activity.
Robert Newman
Lee was first thought to have a brain tumor.
Cheryl Peters
In the younger women, there is a 50 percent reduction in the recurrence rate, and in the older women it's about a 25 percent reduction in the rate of tumor recurrence.
Bernard Fisher
The smaller the tumor, the less chance there is of lymph node involvement.
Anne Dawson
Brain tumor patients tend to suffer a lot of cancer symptoms even after therapy.
Paul Fisher
Young women need to be advised of the risk of accelerated tumor growth and early relapse before giving informed consent for mammography.
Michael Retsky
It's the most lethal cancer there is. The only good thing about it is that, if left untreated, death is relatively quick and pain-free, since this tumor does not form painful metastases in other parts of the body.
Gelsomina De Stasio
The first one on the jaw we call 'Brutus' because he's the big mean guy, and then she has a sugar-cube size tumor on the lining of her lung.
Melissa Dover
However, in spite of my best attempts to transform my life ... the tumor cells had returned. But now the idea of [another] surgery just feels too barbaric.
Jeannine Walston
I think the most exciting benefit is just the fact that we're now able to do a treatment that in the past has had quite a bit of toxicity for patients. It will result in increased dose intensity to the tumor, and fewer overall side effects for the patient.
Albert Koong
One third of all women who are diagnosed with breast cancer have found the tumor themselves.
Barbara Brenner
I can re-create everything in my lab, but it's going to be painful. Stem cells in the gene banks and the cancer cells in the tumor banks: Those are irreplaceable.
John Clements
Where we are moving to is taking an individual's cancer and measuring particular characteristics of it and saying, 'OK, you've got this wrong, this wrong and this wrong in your tumor and, therefore, I am going to treat you with Drug X, Drug Y and Drug Z because that is tailored to your cancer.'
Dr. John Marshall
Unfortunately, we're finding that [the TRUS biopsy] is really not very effective at all. When you look at the statistics of a normal size gland the chances of actually finding that tumor are about 15 percent. So, 85 percent of patients by that biopsy method may be missing their cancer.
Dr. Gary Onik
But they never got that far with the gall bladder. They found the tumor when they did a CT scan. That's when they found his gallstones, but they also found this cancer.
Susan Unser
The surgery was enhanced as a result because the surgeon was able to make a larger incision to relieve pressure. It allowed her to remove a larger portion of a tumor.
Denise Almazan
They said there was some growth of my tumor, but I'm not going to let that get me down. The doctors are just going to watch it closely to make sure it doesn't come back.
Shannon Davis
It causes less damage to the brain because it's a smaller probe, and you would be able to get to precisely where the tumor is rather than overshooting and undershooting it.
Robert Mah
Evidence is emerging that disruption of one's circadian clock is associated with cancer in humans, and that interference with internal timekeeping can tip the balance in favor of tumor development.
David Blask
My biggest fight right now is getting doctors not to run out on me. I never thought I would be hoping my daughter had a tumor, but then they could take it out. With this, they just can't find what there is to fix.
Daniella Galvez
It's highly effective against human tumor cells in tissue cultures. I think this represents a new approach to treatment of cancer.
Robert Newman
Back when I was 26 years old, I had a brain tumor. I had it removed. They told me it would never come back. Four years later, it came back.
Kris Biagiotti
It was a very destructive tumor. It's typically treated much earlier in this country, but he just didn't have access to care where he lived. It was all removed successfully.
Dr. Ramon Ruiz
But now we have firm data showing we should use (it) in most women with advanced ovarian cancer who have had successful surgery to remove the bulk of their tumor.
Dr. Deborah Armstrong
The future of radiation tends to be what we call stereotactic: radiation, which focuses on the tumor and applies large doses at one time as opposed to traditional radiation which is small doses over a longer time, ... There is a gamma knife that's dedicated to treating brain lesions where, instead of radiating the brain in a three-week period, it's a one-time focused, high-powered type treatment.
David Greenwald
There is now evidence to support all aspects of his proposition. Macrophages are among the most motile cells we have. By co-opting the macrophage's ability to move, the hybrid is very different from the original cancer cell. It is able to migrate away from the primary site of tumor formation and take up residence in other areas of the body while it continues to divide.
John Pawelek
We recently did two benefits for a person with a brain tumor and at the first one, he was there. We love doing the benefits.
Patti Brooks
It decreases the production of estrogen which we think feeds the tumor.
Dr. Merla Puray
It looked like surgery accelerated the disease by two years on average, which is the usual dormancy of this [blood vessel-free] tumor state. All the data show this.
Michael Retsky
It will be like a capsule placed into the tumor with a needle.
Babak Ziaie
The doctors presumed my son had a tumor, but they were not very sure.
Yanto Situmorang
For the first time we have shown the initial steps involved in metastasis. By blocking bone marrow cells using antibodies, we are capable of preventing tumor cells implanting, and thus the spread of cancer.
Professor David Lyden
I totally have a fear of getting cancer or a tumor, ... I always feel like I gotta get checked out.
Alan Andrews
A feeling sparked in your mind will translate as a peptide being released somewhere. Peptides regulate every aspect of your body, from whether you're going to digest your food properly to whether you're going to destroy a tumor cell.
Candace Pert
They found a 2.7-pound tumor on his left lung. It was fiber sarcoma.
Joanne Daane
Since 1992, we have surveyed 10 other locations in the Chesapeake watershed. These catfish from the South River have the highest skin tumor rate and second highest liver tumor rate.
Fred Pinkney
Basically the major point is that we're trying to understand what enables melanoma tumor cells to move out from the initial primary tumor to another site in the body, because once that happens melanoma tends to become very difficult to treat and the five-year survival rate drops considerably.
Angela R. Hess
The device is very simple, that's the beauty. This will show specifically how much radiation the tumor received.
Babak Ziaie
Patients breathe. If you've got a lung tumor, the patient's going to move, so the tumor is going to move. You have to have an intelligent robot capable of moving along with the target. So this robotic system really expands radiosurgery for use throughout the body.
Eric Lindquist
We've had good success so far in reducing the size of the tumor.
Elizabeth Edwards
It is very perplexing how an intrepid frontier people, who fought a wilderness, floods, tornadoes, and the Rockies, cower before criticism, which is regarded as a malignant tumor in the imagination.
