Magnetic fields interact with biological cells affecting them in variety of ways which are usually hard to predict. Among them, it was observed that strong fields can align dividing cells in a preferred direction. It was also demonstrated…
One of the most promising strategies to treat cancer is attacking it with viruses. Virus can kill tumor cells specifically or act as carriers that deliver normal genes into cancer cells. A model for virus therapy of cancer is investigated…
We investigate a method of selectively targeting cancer cells by means of ultrasound harmonic excitation at their resonance frequency, which we refer to as oncotripsy. The geometric model of the cells takes into account the cytoplasm,…
An influence of a radio-frequency electric field on glioma - brain cancer development is considered. A specific task emerging here is whether this new medical technology is effective against invasive cells with a high motility, when…
In oncology, treating cancer with a beam of photons is a well established therapeutic technique, developed over 100 years, and today over 50% of cancer patients will undergo traditional X-ray radiotherapy. However, ionizing radiation…
Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the breast grow out of control. After surgery, chemotherapy, and other invasive treatments, hyperthermia is a suitable choice with the minimal side effects. In this paper, the treatment of breast…
I propose to use high brightness electron beam with 1 to 100 MeV energy as tool to combat tumor or cancerous tissues in deep part of body. The method is to directly deliver the electron beam to the tumor site via a small tube that connected…
In outside the body HIFU treatment that focused ultrasound beams hit severely with cancer tissue layer especially the soft one, at the time of passage of the body different layers as long as they want to reach tumor, put their own way…
The challenge of removing cancerous cells lies in the limitation of organ at risk, which restricts the ability to increase the radiation dose adequately for enhancing treatment effectiveness. This survey provides a comprehensive overview of…
Laser acceleration promises innovation in particle beam therapy of cancer where an ultra-compact accelerator system for cancer beam therapy can become affordable to a broad range of patients. This is not feasible without the introduction of…
A toy model for glioma treatment by a radio frequency electric field is suggested. This low-intensity, intermediate-frequency alternating electric field is known as the tumor-treating-field (TTF). In the framework of this model the…
It has been known for about sixty years that proton and heavy ion therapy is a very powerful radiation procedure for treating tumours. It has an innate ability to irradiate tumours with greater doses and spatial selectivity compared with…
The use of drugs or radiation to attack cancerous cells often leaves the treatment material within the body where it could affect healthy cells or damages healthy tissue; as is the case with traditional invasive surgery. An alternative…
Currently, diagnostic medicine uses a multitude of tools ranging from ionising radiation to histology analysis. With advances in piezoelectric crystal technology, high-frequency ultrasound imaging has developed to achieve comparatively high…
The development of cancer is difficult to express on a simple and intuitive level due to its complexity. Since cancer is so widespread, raising public awareness about its mechanisms can help those affected cope with its realities, as well…
Hadrontherapy is a novel technique of cancer radiation therapy which employs beams of charged hadrons, protons and carbon ions in particular. Due to their physical and radiobiological properties, they allow one to obtain a more conformal…
Radiotherapy is one of the main methods in the successful treatment of cancer. The tumor is irradiated with photons or charged particles (e.g. protons), and in the case of massive charged particles, the treatment results in less unnecessary…
Digital image plays a vital role in the early detection of cancers, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, lungs cancer, cervical cancer. Ultrasound imaging method is also suitable for early detection of the abnormality of fetus. The…
Medical Resonance Imaging or MRI is a medical image processing technique that used radio waves to scan the body. It is a tomographic imaging technique, principally used in the field of radiology. With the advantage of being a painless…
Radiomics is a nascent field in quantitative imaging that uses advanced algorithms and considerable computing power to describe tumor phenotypes, monitor treatment response, and assess normal tissue toxicity quantifiably. Remarkable…
