When asked how fantastic the treatment method is? Acupuncture uses silver needles to treat diseases, physiotherapists use a pair of hands to treat diseases, traditional Chinese medicine rehabilitation uses boiling paraffin boards to treat physiotherapy, and an infrared filament!

Ask how much is the cure method Fantasy ? Maybe it's more exciting than martial arts novels!

Acupuncture is treated with silver needles, physiotherapists use and a pair of hands to treat diseases, traditional Chinese medicine rehabilitation uses boiling paraffin board physiotherapy, and use an infrared filament to treat physical therapy!

Use snake venom to develop drugs to treat diseases (thrombin, for stopping hemostatic), and also use arsenic to treat diseases (destroy cell genes and make cancer cells apoptosis! Some types of leukemia )! Is it acceptable to ?

Traditional Chinese medicine is even more fantastic, tiger bone, musk , deer antler, donkey skin ! orange peel, fold ear root , talc , montmorillonite ! Don't you dare to think about it?

Is this talc smooth enough?

Physicists see this lively! No!

I am so high-end stuff. Although CR, DR, CT, magnetic resonance, color ultrasound , nuclear medicine has accounted for 99% of the pit! occupies the C-bit of the disease examination method.

But how can satisfy the endless desire for expansion of physical science? On the road to treatment, cannot be behind! What do you get with

? ray! What is a ray?

Mathematics book says: A ray is a figure composed of a point on a straight line and a part next to it. The light emitted by the

flashlight is also a ray! The electromagnetic wave emitted by microwave ovens and mobile phones is also a ray!

electromagnetic wave pop

is fine, but the energy of is too small , or has no obvious biological effect ! Have to change to something else!

Which physical rays can be used for the treatment of diseases? Let’s talk about electromagnetic waves first!

1.Infrared : Can penetrate the skin, can produce thermal effects. Used to promote blood circulation, promote wound healing, reduce inflammation, accelerate the regression of local congestion, and speed up the repair of injured soft tissue. It can also be used for chronic sterile inflammation, relieve pain caused by local chronic sterile inflammation, and promote local inflammatory absorption.

Therapeutic effects of infrared rays

2.UV, visible light and Infrared light : Phototon skin rejuvenation , uses pulsed strong light to perform a cosmetic treatment on the skin, eliminate/difference various pigment spots on the skin, enhance skin elasticity, eliminate fine wrinkles, improve capillary dilation , improve large pores and rough skin , and improve yellowing skin color.

Skin penetration of light waves

3.X-ray treatment :

X-ray generation

This is more powerful. uses the accelerated electrons of to hit the metal target to produce X-rays, which is a type of ionizing radiation. Its energy is second only to gamma ray . frequency 30PHz~300EHz, corresponding to wavelength 1pm~10nm, and the energy is 124eV~1.24MeV.

X-ray aggregation will irradiate the tumor

It can produce an ionization effect in the human body, and directly destroys cells, especially the vigorously divided tumor cells , so it can be used to treat tumors!

X ray application in the human body

X knife: It can accurately locate and kill tumor cells, can form a scalpel effect between tumor tissue and normal tissue !

side effects and protection : It also has a certain killing effect on healthy cells. It is necessary to reduce the radiation of healthy cells, and it is achieved through the isolation of lead plate , high focus of X-rays, and limiting the treatment range.

4.γ ray : There is gamma knife (γ knife) treatment. The gamma ray produced by cobalt-60 was used for a single-time, large-dose focus irradiation, so that it can produce focal necrosis or functional changes to achieve the purpose of treating the disease. The half-life is 5.27 years, and a single charge can be used for 5 to 7 years.

5. Radioactive element decay ray : From the power of atomic nucleus weak interaction ! Solid high-speed particles: helium nucleus (α particle ; α ray ), electrons (β ray ) are mainly , and there are very few γ rays.

① iodine131: Radiation treatment for hyperthyroidism, a large amount of iodine131 naturally gathers into thyroid follicular cells, targets the out-of-control thyroid cells to kill , reducing the synthesis of thyroid hormone .

Principle: iodine 131 generates β decay nuclide , emits β rays (99%) and gamma rays (1%) , the maximum energy of β rays is 0.6065 mega electron volts . Using cm thick lead plate can shield , and the main gamma ray energy is 0.364 megaelectron volts. The half-life of iodine 131 is 8.02 days, and the safety is guaranteed. Of course, dosage control is the main one.

In addition to treating hyperthyroidism, iodine 131 labeled rose red sodium salt and equine urate can be used for quantitative examination of the liver, gallbladder and kidney function.

Nuclide imaging scan check

② lete-177: contains its octreotide , which can treat neuroendocrine tumors with high expression of somatostatin receptor .

③ phosphorus-32, strontium-90 or yttrium-90: Make a special application according to the size and shape of the lesion, close to the surface of the lesion, and use the beta ions generated by decay to exterior irradiate the body surface lesions. It is suitable for the treatment of diseases such as skin hemangioma, keloid , stubborn eczema and localized neurodermatitis .

④Iodine-125 and yttrium-90:Iodine-125 is sealed in a titanium tube or yttrium-90 is sealed in a glass microsphere. It is transported to the local lesion by by intervening in , and uses β-rays to accurately kill lesion cells and tissues at close range.

⑤ boron neutron capture treatment : boron-10 element will undergo nuclear reaction after absorbing neutrons, splitting into heavy-charged particles with strong cell lethality, namely α particles and lithium-7 particles. The flight distance is only one cell size, which will only destroy a single cell. Normal cells that do not absorb boron-10 will not be affected by thermal neutrons. It is a highly promising precise treatment method for malignant tumors.

⑥ heavy ion treatment : high-energy helium nucleus and other . heavy ion is internationally recognized as the most ideal radiotherapy 1st century . It is especially suitable for refractory cases where surgical surgery, chemotherapy, routine radiotherapy is ineffective or prone to recurrence. has a high relative biological effect of dose loss concentrated at the end of range and . has minimal damage to healthy tissues around the lesions, has good killing effects on cancer cells, accurately monitors the irradiation position and dosage, has a short course of treatment, no pain, and has almost no side effects. The average treatment period of is 3 weeks , and general X-ray treatment (6-7 weeks). Lung cancer and liver cancer achieved ultra-short-term treatment of 1-2 times/1-2 days. The uterine malignant tumor is about 5 weeks, and the neck malignant tumor, bone soft tissue malignant tumor, and prostate cancer is about 4 weeks. China is the fourth country in the world to conduct clinical trials on heavy ion tumor treatment: in 2012, Gansu Wuwei Cancer Hospital .

protons can treat tumors

⑦ Another contestant in heavy ion therapy: Proton treatment : accelerates protons to 70% of the speed of light . After acceleration, the energy of protons can reach about 00MeV, and can treat tumors up to 30cm. The proton energy range for radiation therapy is 50-250eMeV. When reaching the tumor lesion, the "directed blast" concentrates on releasing energy to kill the solid lesion. That is, the characteristics of the dose loss concentrated on the end of the range.

Proton therapy head surrounded by huge machines

Shanghai established China's first proton heavy ion hospital in 2015, located in Fudan University Cancer Hospital . The treatment cost is unified to for each course of treatment more than 200,000 yuan.

One of the advantages of heavy ion therapy

is so expensive? The construction of in a proton center usually requires billions of RMB investment and requires a construction cycle of 2-5 years. Then, the annual maintenance and labor costs of are very high, and it is often hundreds of millions of .

Proton cyclotron accelerator has a circumference of more than 10 meters to dozens of meters. The rotating frame is more than 10 meters high and weighs hundreds of tons.

Note:

. The lesion and normal tissue are not clear or or . The lesions are more extensive. , and is not suitable for proton therapy with .

. Proton heavy ion treatment cannot ensure that the tumor will not recur and metastasis after treatment, but after , the chance of tumor recur and metastasis after is much lower than other treatment methods.

Heavy ion therapy status in various countries

Physics is powerful, isn’t it very powerful? But even though it is so powerful, it is still impossible to help the doctor complete the treatment of all diseases, and there will still be incurable symptoms!

is really a step higher than the devil! ! ! In some ways, the disease itself is the most powerful! What to do if
