...medical community. "A 50% tumor regression is very good," observed Dr. Kurt Stenzel of the Rogosin Institute at New York Hospital, who is also working with IL-2. "But you still want more," he said. "You want it to go away and never come back." Doctors, including Rosenberg, expressed concern about the treatment's side effects. For most of the patients in the NCI experiment, the treatment caused serious fluid retention, with up to 20 lbs. of water accumulating in the lungs, liver, kidneys and elsewhere in the body. As a result, two patients had life-threatening breathing problems that...
With further research, Rosenberg hopes to find a way around these difficulties and to make the technique less complicated and less costly. At present, the treatment calls for four to five weeks of hospitalization, a squadron of technicians for each patient and specialized lab facilities, all of which add up to a cost of tens of thousands of dollars for a single treatment. "Most hospitals would find it impossible to perform this procedure," he said. "There are a lot of problems to be worked...

But cancer experts unanimously emphasize that the new treatment is nowhere close to being a cure. "We have patients; we have responses," said Rosenberg. "But we're not yet where we want...
Many people have experienced the portrait's strange spell.

But if the painting isn't by Rembrandt, then we have no idea who the warrior was, just an old man, tough and brave and sad. The experts are trying to learn more by subjecting the painting to a series of technical tests. These include activating some of its neutrons so that they can be compared with the neutrons in authenticated Rembrandts. The experts are always right, as we know...
