Read up on it and you get the usual gobbledygook about "response", both partial and complete and by now many of us have learned it simply means tumor shrinkage and does not necessarily relate to survivability. If there is a 'partial response' that means partial shrinkage. Will it kill all cancer cells? Let the trials begin.

I personally know someone that Vincent had suggested explore this because she was panicking over an impending surgical procedure to remove a cancerous tumor. She had a 1 hour outpaitent procedure and that was it.

Sit back and take a breath and watch the waters part. Like RFA, not everyone will be a candidate and we need some watchful waiting to see how effective it is.
