Radiation is our friend don’t be afraid

This is an interesting article. Thank you for bringing it to our attention @farazamjad. Also, welcome to Steemit! :c)

It has always been my view that traditional means of treating cancer have been too 'broad brush' and inefficient. Whether via chemo or radio, such have been akin to nuking the body's cells, both bad and good - with the result of temporary improvement, along with a number of sad side effects.

This gives me hope as I've always wondered why multiple laser-like directed radiation has not been used to harm cancerous cells at their cross-section without harming the healthy cells surrounding them - the intensity within the tolerance levels of the cells concerned.

More research is warranted.

dear @pathforger we hear at particle accelerator facilities are carrying out cutting-edge research and various departments are bring new technologies to solve real life problem and issues. I am glad you found this article useful.
The method to treat the cancer with carbon beam is expensive but as time progress it will be avialable to masses of people. GSI in Darmstadt, Germany and HIT facility in Heidelberg, Gemany has proven that this technology is the futer with minimum damage to the healthy tissue.
