Advances in cancer treatment by physics

Wow, sometimes is amazing how can you discover things you don't expect. Recently, there was a big impact in the medical world about a study of a spanish research team trying to understand how cancer grows and how it deals with our immunological system.

Well, apparently, it follows a fractal way of growth, that's what Antonio BrĂș, a physician, discovered after applying the expansion models of water in earth to the expansion of tumoral cells in our body. He was interested in cancer after the death of his sister from this illness, and he began his research by his own with no help from the goverment or any kind of institution...

Here you have a link to an 2004 article speaking about this. I could find the english version of this, but recently this research team treated a terminal cancer patient with their self-healing techniques, and it worked! What a promising future ;)
