Radiation therapy uses high-energy radiation to shrink tumors and kill cancer cells. X-rays, gamma rays, and charged particles are types of radiation used for cancer treatment. The radiation may be delivered by a machine outside the body called a linear accelerator to focus x-rays directly on the tumor or tumor bed (external-beam radiation therapy), or it may come from radioactive material placed in the body near cancer cells (internal radiation therapy, also called brachytherapy). Systemic radiation therapy uses radioactive substances, such as radioactive iodine, that travel in the blood to kill cancer cells.

Cervical Cancer
Specific Problems: 1. What stage in the maturity of the deadly nightshade fruit is most efficient as an anti-neoplastic agent? 2. What concentration of the extract is most efficient against HPV related cervical neoplasms? 3. What are the implications by the study should the crude polysaccharides derived from the product be proven a potent anti-neoplastic agent? HYPOTHESES: Is the Lubi-lubi extract a potent anti-neoplastic agent against HPV related cervical neoplasms? • Null hypothesis.
