Thanks @jennyss .... but this baby is @kmakm's ;) - well done, Kate for keeping us up to date.
Some amazing stuff coming out just now - and we are of course, hopeful that it will all be to our own benefit ....
I was reading the other day that they are now doing cyroablation (freezing) of tumours to kill them outright .... put the needle into the tumour (under ultrasound/scanning) and pump it with ice cold temps to kill it. Initially it was for Liver & other tumours - but has been used on breast cancers too
