Images: The process of “melting” and discharge of cancer lesions in the breast as indicated by mammograms; The smaller the lesions the faster the discharge process; The electrical activities of the breast imaged by ECVT vanishes along with the “melting” process; For highly polarized cell types (ECCT Classification Type B) the process of cell death and discharge takes 3—6 months (TOP); The discharge process for certain types of breast cancers (i.e. less polarized types, ECCT Classification Type C2) may take years as indicated by a series of MRI images (BOTTOM).
Images: ECCT showed good responses to metastatic breast cancers: TOP: Bone and liver metastatic breast cancer (ECCT Classification Type C2); BOTTOM: Lymphnodes, lung and brain metastatic breast cancer (ECCT Classification Type C1, BOTTOM). While ECCT responses depend on the extent of organ failures, i.e. A complete recovery is still possible when vital organs are relatively undamaged, generally ECCT is beneficial for pain management for palliative care.
Images: TOP: MRI images brain cancer cases located in the pineal of a high grade glioma, a soft and highly polarized type (ECCT Classifiation Type B), showing almost complete removals within relatively short period of times (months); and BOTTOM: MRI images of brain tumor cases of hard and less polarized types (ECCT Classification Type D), showing slow process of removals in years.
Images: Advanced lung adenocarcinoma cases treated with ECCT: TOP: Long period (3 years) of treatment accompanied by inflammation leaved large portion of fibrosis; BOTTOM: Latest development of ECCT system leads to faster process (3 months) of treatment and hence less fibrosis for a relatively comparable case.
