Cancer Treatment/Then & Now
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page research paper that discusses cancer technology and treatment 30 years ago compared with today. The fight against cancer has come a long way in the last several decades. By examining where cancer technology and treatment was 30 years ago, compared to the present, it is easy to see the rapid rate of change and what this has meant in terms of saved lives with improved treatment options.

Looking at advances since that time shows that there has been a great deal of progress toward reaching this goal. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
