Abstract

Overview

This comprehensive review discusses the role of physiological networks and cellular bioelectrical properties in cancer and explores non-thermal systemic electromagnetic fields as a novel oncological treatment modality.

Findings

• All cells, and particularly cancer cells, have characteristic electrical properties that are crucial for their physiological behavior.
• There is an observed difference in the electrical properties between normal and cancer cells which presents a treatment opportunity.
• Cancer cells exhibit unique autonomous oscillations that deviate from normal rhythms, indicating a dynamic system rather than a static environment.
• Radiofrequency electromagnetic fields have shown to induce positive therapeutic responses in cancer patients with minimal side effects, suggesting an effective treatment mode.

Conclusion

The review supports the clinical use of non-thermal systemic radiofrequency electromagnetic fields in cancer treatment, demonstrating promising results in early clinical trials for advanced cancer, including improved quality of life.
