Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) is one of a hopeful treatment for brain cancer. Now, researchers are also using lasers to activate cancer-destroying drugs and other groups are testing the use of electrical fields to intersect the cancer cells division. The researchers are yet to determine the effectiveness and which patients might benefit, though these therapies seem promising. Scientists have been comprehending the potential of using lasers to get away with solid tumours for decades. There were two main problems. Firstly, researchers had nothing to monitor how much tissue the laser was eliminating. And secondly, the probe’s bare fibre-optic cables would beco...
