A new cancer treatment combines LED light and tiny tin flakes to neutralize cancer cells while shielding healthy cells and ...

Molecular vibrations, when paired with near-infrared (NIR) light, have opened a new chapter in cancer treatment. Instead of relying on radiation or chemicals, scientists now use finely tuned molecules ...

Photothermal therapy (PTT) uses light to target cancer by local heating of a light-absorbing medium proximate to or internalized by cells and malignant tumors. It uses a photosensitizer molecule that, ...

If you’ve been on social media, you’ve probably seen ads for red light therapy — glowing panels, masks and spa treatments promising everything from fat and weight loss to op ...

An LED-based intraoral device for photobiomodulation therapy appeared safe and reduced severe oral mucositis versus a placebo ...

A team of scientists, led by the University of Liverpool, has developed a diagnostic test for esophageal cancer using an extremely intense source of infrared light to image tissue taken from patients ...

Science X is a network of high quality websites with most complete and comprehensive daily coverage of the full sweep of science, technology, and medicine news ...

Scientists have developed new light-sensitive chemicals that can radically improve the treatment of aggressive cancers with minimal side effects. In mouse tests, the new therapy completely eradicated ...
