Cutting-Edge Cancer Treatments: Gold Nanoparticles and Hyperthermia with Dr. Philip Salem
This technology provides you with the opportunity of delivering heat directly targeting the cancer cell, and that technology provides you the chance to give extra heat- significant heat times, more than the heat we use in traditional hypothermia, and that extreme heat can kill and destroy the cancer cell.
What if the future of cancer treatment involved tiny particles of gold and heat? In this episode of 'American Medicine Today', hosts Kimberly Bonatti and Ethan Euchre, alongside Dr. Alfred Bonatti, sit down with Dr. Philip Salem, President of the Salem Oncology Centre in Houston, Texas. They dive into the fascinating world of using gold nanoparticles and hyperthermia to treat cancer. Dr.
Salem explains how these innovative methods can deliver intense heat directly to cancer cells, boosting the effectiveness of chemotherapy and radiation while minimizing the toxic side effects typically associated with these treatments. He also shares the hurdles faced in implementing this technology and highlights the importance of tailoring therapy to each patient's unique tumor.
Whether you're battling cancer, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the latest medical advancements, this episode offers a deep dive into groundbreaking cancer research and personalized treatment strategies.
