For a paper published in the spring of 2012, a group of scientists based in London looked at tiny pebbles of disease from four kidney-cancer patients.
New tiny sensors spot disease before it occurs.
These analyses have provided valuable insights into the genetics of complex diseases; however, they typically detect only common, low-risk variants each with small effect and explain only a tiny proportion of disease heritability [ 4].
Whilst we do not know whether our patients with such tiny microscopic IIA disease are prejudiced by not having a Wertheim hysterectomy, we offer vault brachytherapy to these women.
