USQ Bioinformatics Senior Lecturer, Dr Jesus Lopez, will lead a world first study that will look at genes and their responsiveness to radiotherapy in bladder cancer sufferers. The study will be undertaken from next year and is of great importance to bladder cancer patients worldwide. ‘When treating bladder cancer there are two types of treatment, radiotherapy and removing the bladder,’ Dr Lopez said. ‘About 45 percent of bladder cancer patients require radiotherapy or surgery and radiotherapy has a failure rate of 50 percent, while surgery (bladder removal) diminishes quality of life considerably. ‘What we want to do is use Bioinformatics to test patient’s genes and see if we can predict whether or not radiation will work and discover which genes are involved in tumour-death.’ Support for the research has come from abroad, with interested stakeholders in the UK keeping an eye on the results. ‘The project is in collaboration with Cancer Research UK, The University of Ulster and the University of Leicester,’ Dr Lopez said. ‘Patients used in the study will be from the UK, while we will use bioinformatics to analyse data here.’ Dr Lopez has also received backing from the Australian Research Council (ARC) for the study after receiving a Discovery Grant worth $170000. ‘These Discovery Grants are very competitive and are not only based on the project that you want to do but also on your background,’ he said. ‘It is a vote of confidence and if you get some promising results there …

Tumor survivor Sonny flew half way across the globe from Australia to Turkey, Europe for cyberknife Cancer radiotherapy treatment. The medical trip was arranged by www.MedicalTourismCo.Com a Plano, TX, USA based medical tourism company. Costing about 15% of what the same type of cancer radiotherapy would cost in the USA. Cyberknife has found very good applications is cancer eradication in case of difficult to surgically treat body organ cancers tumors like brain tumor, lung tumor, soft tissues, spine tumor, head tumor, neck, liver tumor, prostrate tumor, pancreatic cancer lesions, metastatic spinal lesions, benign tumors are more. A number of tumor patients from UK, Ireland & many parts of Europe visit this hospital (Anadolu Medical Center, Turkey) for cancer treatment. A JCI accredited world renowned oncology center. Unlike Gamma Knife radiosurgery, Cyberknife is available in only very few cancer centers in the world. Cyberknife has many advantages over gamma knife. Cyberknife is considered non invasive & more accurate than traditional radiotherapy. Not all qualify for cyber knife and in some cases a doctor may require a chemotherapy before a cyberknife robotic radio surgery treatment is done. Cyberknife is also available in India. CyberKnife system is the latest device in radiation oncology it targets benign & malignant tumors more accurately than standard radiotherapy.

A recent Horizon TV programme here in the UK reported that living organisms exposed to relatively low level radiation in the Chernobyl fallout area (but much higher than average background levels) showed no significant increase in cancer – In fact low level radiation appears to activate genes which are involved with repair of genetic material, thus providing a protective effect.

If this is the case, then aren’t we actually safer doing some moderate sunbathing without sunscreen, than slapping on the sunscreen and staying out for hours on end? It seems to me that the increase in skin cancer in many parts of the world in recent years coincides with an increase in the use of sunscreen. Certainly, no sunscreen manufacturer claims that their products prevent or even limit skin cancer, because there’s no evidence that they do. It may well be safer not to use the stuff, and let your skin protect itself naturally instead.
