Israel developed 'bombs' for cancer treatment

Israeli medical researchers say they have developed a new technique that allows "blasting" of malignant tumors from inside to outside, reducing the risk of recurrence after treatment.

Prof. Yona Keisari and Itzhak Kelson, Tel Aviv University (Israel) have begun clinical trials of transplanting a small block with a needle tip containing alpha radioactive particles into the malignant tumor.

'It's like a bomb but instead of exploding once, atoms will constantly spread and alpha particles will spread more and more . ' The researchers say the process takes about 10 days and will only contain non-radioactive substances and absolutely not lead poisoning for patients.

According to the statement: 'Cancer cells are not only completely destroyed, but most cases of the body develop immunity against recurring tumors'.

This therapy has been tested by medical researchers on mice. Israeli researchers hope that the new treatment will soon be tested on humans at Beilinson Hospital, near Tel Aviv University.
