...cancer has spread to involve not only the original area, but other organs or tissues as well. It can, however, be combined with other systemic treatments, such as chemotherapy, to treat metastatic disease, and has often been used to treat solid metastatic tumors most commonly found in the lungs, liver, spine and brain. And the technology is continually evolving. The company's Synchrony program allows doctors to irradiate lung tumors by synchronizing the robotic arm with the rise and fall of a patient's breathing. Says Thomson: "Our dream is that we'll make radiosurgery an option for every cancer...
...bougainvillea - even the pharmacy is unchanged since the turn of the last century. Many houses have been converted into hotels. Best is the six-room Andries Stockenstrom Guesthouse on Craddock Street. In her high-ceilinged, 1819 manor house, award-winning chef Beatrice Barnard serves up Karoo haute cuisine: ostrich-liver paté, smoked kudu with sesame water and loin of Karoo lamb on potato rösti. Room rates are $94-107 per person...

The numbers don't account for chronic disease averted because of a prevented infection: Hepatitis B, for example, is a major risk factor for liver cancer...
Earlier this year, Atala's group became the first to make another valuable discovery: that amniotic fluid contains stem cells. These have proven critical in helping his team to regenerate tissues from the more ornery cells of the pancreas, liver and nerves, which don't grow as well in a lab dish. Amniotic-fluid stem cells aren't as versatile as embryonic stem cells, which can turn into every tissue type in the body, but they can still develop into an impressive number of much-needed cell types, and Atala has already used them to grow up muscle, bone...
