Scientists at Tel Aviv University have developed a radioactive wire, less than an inch long and about the width of a pin. When inserted into a tumour, the wire releases lethal radioactive atoms that irradiate the tumour. As it breaks down, the tumour itself releases antigens, which trigger an immune response against the cancer cells, preventing the return of the tumour.
