Radiofrequency ablation, sometimes referred to as RFA, is a minimally invasive treatment for cancer. It is an image-guided technique that heats and destroys cancer cells.
Dr Maitland speculated that if he could attach glowing proteins to viruses programmed to find and infect cancer cells, he could make tumours easier to see.
Researchers at Cambridge University believe the experimental drug which controls metabolism could also be used to starve cancer cells in the prostate and stop them growing.
For 2010, the winning photomicrographs include: colorful, psychedelic soap-film bubbles, cancer cells that appear as flowery pom-poms and an alien-like portrayal of a bird of paradise seed.
Treating these cancer cells with salmonella effectively makes them "visible" to the body's immune cells and therefore open to attack.
In other words, there may be two or three molecules inside cancer cells that are functioning abnormally in order to confer on the cancer cell unrelenting growth.
Not at all: "a self-contained polyp" that had "begun to develop a few cancer cells" had been removed from him.

They release the drugs once they get there, delivering a targeted blow to the cancer cells.
Such shortening is part of a cell's aging process, and since cancer cells keep dividing forever, the Whitehead group reasoned that making human cells more mouselike might also make them cancerous.
Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.
What if you could somehow infuse or coat cancer cells with a conductive substance and then zap them with radio waves?
In laboratory experiments, for instance, cancer cells have been transferred by mosquitoes from one hamster to another.
By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.
When the researchers looked at a specific set of genes that kill cancer cells, TF-2 was found to activate the genes.
Chemotherapy drugs kill cancer cells.
