(angiogenesis) was found a key target for PEMT therapy and was found to inhibit angio-
genesis via a hypoxia-driven pathway. The combining of gamma irradiation, which kills
rapidly dividing cancer cells, with PEMF therapy resulted in an additive tumor growth
suppression, longer host survival, and lowest incidence of metastasis (Cameron et al.,
2005a,b).
4. What are prospects for PEMF treatment of tumorous cancers? The antiangiogenic action
of PEMF therapy makes it a safe valuable adjunct to commonly used tumorous cancer
therapies that target killing of rapidly dividing cells.
Here is a suggestion for future combinational therapy. PEMF is an effective adjunct therapy fol-
lowing IR therapy, but ...
