Thanks to a technology developed for NASA's Space Shuttle space shuttle program, Milwaukee Medical University has created a new method for curing cancer in medicine. They have adopted a lighting technique developed in spacecraft for plant cultivation and have created a device for use in brain cancer healing operations. The device activates medications that cure brain cancer through light rays, obtaining excellent results in the two operations performed to date. Using a tool of small light-emitting diodes large wavelength light rays are thrown into the brain and the light-sensitive drug Photofrin is activated.
As a result, the drug begins to remove the tumor. These special rays penetrate more into brain tissues than laser rays, making them more efficient, in addition to being much cheaper.
