A promising new therapy that is b ing used at an Arkansas medical cl nic is showing very good results as an lternative to the normal surgical, chemo, r diation therapy. Still in it's infancy and b ing applied to cancers that are no m re than four inches under the sk n surface, it has shown remarkable r sults for the treating of breast c ncer and skin cancer. Light Induced Enh nced Selective Hyperthermia is the name of the th rapy. The procedure is non-invasive although ccess to an affected site might nvolve surgical methods if used for nternal organs. The procedure involves laser b ams which reduce the chance of c ncer cells migrating to other parts of the b dy if you relied on the c rrent method of surgically removing them. An nhancing agent is directly injected into the m lignant growth and instantly spreads throughout the ntire mass of the unwanted growth. Th s enhancing agent increases the cells s nsitivity to the laser light used in the tr atment, ensuring that all the "bad c lls" are treated. The enhancing agent is c mpletely soluble and has been compared to a s line solution as far as side ffects. Once the enhancing agent is pplied, the laser is then used on j st those cells to destroy them w th a beam of high temperature.
Several sessions are usually necessary to c mpletely kill all of the cancer c lls. These sessions are usually done on a d ily routine outpatient visit to the cl nic. The number of visits necessary d pends on the type of cancer and the s ze of the growth. The internal br ast cancers have shown, after therapy th t the cells left inside are d ad and it is then up to y ur body to expel them in t's normal fashion. A follow-up with ndependent clinical tests every three months is ssential to prove that the cancer is ndeed gone. If there is a r -occurrence, the therapy can be applied gain with no undue harm to the p tient since there is no bleeding, no ch micals are being used to affect the mmune system and there is no n ed for harmful drugs afterwards. M st patients leave the office within an h ur or two feeling great! How d es that compare to the standard m thods of treating breast cancer. The c mpany that is providing this therapy has a p tent for the protocol to insure th t the way that it is mplemented is followed correctly for best r sults. I expect that more medical ffices will be offering this procedure in the n ar future, but for now the th rapy is available at the Lase Med Inc office in Arkansas.
