werd, the training on that (not that I remember shit from it) was disgusting and I mean disgusting even by medical standards
There is a lot radiation oncology does that isn't just cancer based. Also, you will see Chemotherapy banned far more quickly than radiotherapy if a cure for cancer is found.
Keep in mind, however, there will most likely not be a single-bullet 'cure for cancer'. Cancer is so widely varied that it's nearly impossible to think of a singular cure for it.
he's a bit of an oddball with the ladies, he's a teacher, and he was dating his principle for a long time, then moved schools and broke up, and she was like 10 years older, now he's dating and possibly marrying this brown chick. she's pretty nice, I met her a couple times.
they do. All in all, it sounds gross but is a very effective way for dealing with debridement procedures.
it is but it's against policy pretty much across the board... I know in school a teacher liked to use them but she had to do it behind closed doors so to speak
Not really.
"In January 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted permission to produce and market maggots for use in humans or animals as a prescription-only medical device for the following indications:[16][17] "For debriding non-healing necrotic skin and soft tissue wounds, including pressure ulcers, venous stasis ulcers, neuropathic foot ulcers, and non-healing traumatic or post-surgical wounds." In February 2004, the British National Health Service (NHS) permitted its doctors to prescribe maggot therapy. In Europe, Canada and Japan maggots are classified as medicinal drugs, needing a full market licence. In the US, maggots for medicinal use are classified as a device."
It's use against necrotizing infections is increasing.
this honestly makes me happy to hear...glad they are focusing on what works instead of public perception
Me too. Public Perception is a horrible way to set medical policy, mostly because the public is stupid.
Luckily, I build the systems that link CT/MRI to treatment planning to Record & Verify to Billing. I have a horrible bedside manner.
I can't believe the vaccine debate still goes on, it's been years and they still can't shake that perception
well, once Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey spoke up about it. You have to admit, their validity on the topic speaks volumes...
