But this is the holy grail of oncology, is it not? To reach cancer cells non-invasively with spot-on accuracy so healthy cells are spared?
- agumonkey 11y agoSure, ability to target a bad cell and only a bad one is. There are many way, membrane markers etc. But they all involve using the main vascular system with potential harmful leaks. Now if you can create your own 'chemo vessel' to reach into a tumor.
