New Cancer Treatment Achieves First Mesothelioma Success:
los angeles clippers tickets NASHVILLE, Tennessee—Standard treatments for the care of mesothelioma seemed to have failed to stop or slow the growth of the cancer, but the first mesothelioma patient treated with a new protocol has shown successful results. The results are early and show similarities to the investigative protocol's success against several other aggressive cancers. The patient with mesothelioma is a woman in her late forties. She was exposed to asbestos fiber when she was a child and was diagnosed with the rare cancer in 2008. Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral fiber which is extremely strong, flexible and lightweight, and which can be woven into fabric or mixed into building materials such as concrete. It has a remarkable ability to resist heat, electrical conduction, salt water, and other chemical and biological changes. It has been widely used in building materials and insulation, as well as in automotive parts and other industrial capacities.golden state warriors tickets
