Advancements in Treating Disabilities

  • Non-Invasive Treatment May Work for Lung Cancer Patients
    Aug 13, 2010

    Lung cancer can be a devastating diagnosis to receive. The treatment for lung cancer can be harsh on the body and lead a person to become disabled and unable to work. The good news is that there are non-invasive treatments that may work for lung cancer patients.  

    There are two general types of lung cancer; small cell and non-small cell. Small cell lung cancer spreads quickly. About 13% of lung cancers are small cell. Non-small cell lung cancer spreads slowly and accounts for 87% of lung cancers.

    Regardless of the type of lung cancer a person develops, it is a serious condition and is one of the top 5 deadliest cancers in the United States.

    A non-invasive treatment being offered is called SonoPhoto Dynamic Therapy (SPDT). This treatment eliminates the serious side effects found in other types of treatment. It is a painless way of giving patients a natural chlorophyll substance under their tongue. Cancer cells are killed and tumors shrink quickly.

    Recently, SPDT has been found to be safe and effective in the United States. This non-invasive treatment has been found to also successfully treat other types of cancer such as: 

    • Breast;
    • Prostate;
    • Bone;
    • Liver;
    • Kidney;
    • Colon;
    • Rectal; and
    • Ovarian.
