For this reason Asbestos was used for many years in a number of different commercial and industrial capacity. Because of its strength and resistance to heat and its ability to electrical insulation and extreme resistance to chemicals and asbestos used in roofing shingles and floor tiles and cement compounds, textile products, and auto parts.

This means avoiding exposure to asbestos the main cause of this disease. Although the chances of contracting mesothelioma commensurate with the size and intensity of exposure, this disease has been known to develop exposure in people who had very limited - but who have a genetic predisposition to cancer were more susceptible to it.

People who worked in jobs that contain asbestos for many years, discuss mesothelioma prevention seems to be a moot point. Many of those who were exposed to asbestos think it's too late to talk about ways to avoid developing mesothelioma. They believe that the impact of asbestos on the lungs has already manifested itself and there is no escaping the risk of developing the disease. However, exposure to asbestos in the past is not the only factor people should worry about the possibility of being subjected today is not the only one error only.

Photodynamic therapy works on the first two steps doctor runs photosensitizer, a type of drug that makes cells sensitive to certain wavelengths of light. Then the second step is the exposure of cancer cells to light, causing a reaction that kills tumor cells nearby.
