many years ago my father dead with cancer
so i write for cure solid cancer.
i'm a poor ignorant and my idea will be wrong,
but i hope someone, somewhere, have the
right idea for cure that illness

rmn

the nuclear magnetic resonance
can build "photos" 3D of our body.

is it possible to find cancer cells

with that machine
with resolution of millimetre/10?

is it possible to have a machine
that can concentrate waves for "cook"
only that millimetre/10?
(even if inside the body)

if somebody have studied physics here
what is the ideal frequency of these waves?
are these radio waves? 10^9 HZ?

That's being done as we speak -- I think it's even with gamma rays. The old way
was lethal to everything in its beam in a straight path. So now they combine a
lot of non-lethal rays from different angles; on their crossing point,
everything is destroyed, and the other tissue is safe.

OTOH locating malignant tissue is not as simple as shown on the television.
Theoretically, the resolution is that of individual hydrogen atoms (these get
all excited by the NMR and output a distinct radio signal). The limiting factor
is the amount of detectors to gather all that information -- /their/ resolution
is much lower, you can't "zoom in" on individual cells.
And you can't tell good from bad by just looking at the hydrogen.
