His invention may just be another way of killing cancer cells less invasively than with surgery, but I don't see how it can actually "cure" cancer. Until the time comes that science can track down every microscropic cancer cell that travels in the bloodstream and kill them all at once, we're still a long way from a cure. I'm more interested in the "vaccine" article that shows some promise for activating antibodies in our own bodies to kill the Hers2+ protein. When scientists develop a vaccine to turn our own bodies into better cancer-fighting machines, then we'll be closer to a cure!
