Brain tumor

old or damaged cells survive when they should die, and new cells form when not needed. Cancer can occur some organs and each organs can have different reaction to the disease. Many cancers are solid tumors, which are masses of tissue. Blood cancers, such as leukemias, generally do not form solid tumors. Leukemia is located in the blood or in the bone marrow, but it can spread to lymph nodes, spleen, liver, central nervous system and other organs. This type of cancer can affect the…

Targeting solid tumors - primary & metastatic - irrespective of their anatomical location in the body or pathological sub-type – and permeating drug molecules into the targeted tumor mass, will improve therapeutic outcomes and reduce life-threatening systemic toxicities induced by routinely administered chemotherapeutic regimens. Creating molecular dimension-specific temporary pores in the cell membrane using precisely computed, safe radiofrequencies (RF) from an external source, to…

between the two kinds of tumor. Each kind of tumor has its own characteristics. Benign tumors cannot spread out to other parts of the body because they are capsulated by a fibrous sheath of connective tissue. Therefore, they remain at their original sites. In contrast, malignant tumors (cancers) are not capsulated, so they have the ability to metastasize through blood and lymphatic vessels in a process called metastasis (1). The result of this process is new masses of the tumor will be created…

The Major Cancer Cause That Remains Suppressed Since 1930 In the past 125 years, there have been a number of discoveries about the cause of cancer. In 1890, William Russell found out that cancer cells contain microbes. Later on, it was discovered that these microbes change their size and shape due to the pH level inside the cancer cells. In 1930, Dr. Royal Raymond Rife proved that the cancer cells revert into normal cells if the microbes inside these cells are destroyed. Dr. Rife developed…

and radio waves are used to create images of organs and tissues in the human body. The MRI scan helps the doctor see if there are any unhealthy organs or tissues in the body. MRI scans are used for injuries of the back or any other joint injuries, tumors, types of heart problems, and liver disease. When a person is getting a MRI, they need to stay very still. If they don’t, the images will not come out clear. A MRI…

Brain cancer, or rather brain tumors, are not all the same. There are four separate classifications for identifying brain tumors. The first is Grade 1, which means the brain has harmless cancer cells, which grow slowly but are not affecting the brain abnormally. The second is Grade 2, which is more dangerous than Grade 1, but only slightly so. The cells in Grade 1 and 2 only look slightly different than the normal brain cells, but it is still possible to identify them. The third type is…

Integrative Research Centers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (A): The mission of the CNTC is to transform cancer therapy by enabling the early detection of cancer using nanoparticles and molecular imaging, as well as by developing new treatments with tumor- targeting technology. Specifically, the major activities of the center will focus on identifying unique biomarkers that could be targeted with nanoparticles themselves or antibody-labeled nanoparticles, and captured with…

Wayward Cells 1. Explain how transitions are used to lead into and out of each step. In the essay, “Wayward Cells,” the author used different transitions to explain how tumor cells cause damage to the human body in different ways. The different damages were organized in order using transition words like first, second, and third. Throughout the essay, the author also uses “for example,” to add more support to the emphasized idea. The transition words “fortunately” is used by author to entry into…

regional failure with or without distant metastasis. Recurrent tumors usually extensively damage surrounding tissue. In rNPC patients, physical status and immune system are generally poor because of prior treatment. A study of Lee from Hong Kong reported that 52% of patients developed rNPC within 2 years, and 39%, within 2–5 years6. Precision imaging was role to support the diagnosis of…

One of the latest technologies I have come across was a product that is similar to what I would call a pain patch. A pain patch was something that a person wore and their body would absorb the medication during the time they wore such patch. This new product is an elastic film that has studded biocompatible microcapsules that are packed with nanoparticles that can be filled with whatever drugs are needed (Di, Yao, Ye, Cui, yu, Ghosh, Zhu, & Gu. (2015). The simplicity of how it works is easy. The…
