"Light Sabre" To Help Fight Cancer?

Posted By Mike on November 22, 2008

Click here for an article from HeraldSun.com.au regarding the use of a scientifically created 'light sabre" that is to be used to fight cancer cells.


"The device could be routinely used on patients within the next five years, according to the researchers.

The machine - a couple of millimetres square - fires a laser beam so accurately that it can puncture a hole in an individual cell, allowing drugs to enter and do their work much more effectively.

It could mean, for example, that the cells surrounding the spot where a tumour has been removed by surgery would be holed by the device.

This would allow chemotherapy drugs to enter and kill any remaining cancer cells. It would be particularly useful for hard-to-reach cancers such as that of the pancreas."
