Solving the Breast Cancer Puzzle

All-In-One Cancer Tool
Stanislav Emelianov, professor
When the technology that Stanislav Emelianov and his laboratory are developing reaches its full extent, it would offer physicians a Swiss Army knife for treatment of breast cancer.
Instead of blades, can openers and toothpicks, the tool Emelianov is developing would deploy sound, light and nanotechnology to detect, treat and monitor the disease. The specificity with which the tool will perform will offer a large degree of personalized medicine.
Emelianov is working with a grant from the Breast Cancer Research Foundation to research and develop the technology.
It offers a ray of light — and sound — in the treatment of breast cancer.
