It's a very, very deadly type of cancer called an angiosarcoma.

He said the cancer's moved into my lymphatic system.

Took out most o9 the lymph nodes.

You see a lot of little, roundish bumps there.

And this corresponded to a tumor the size of a golf ball.

This is a recent cover of New York Magazine.

Endolymph fluid.

And then if that node has cancer, the woman would go on to get the axillary lymph node dissection.

Gone to your lymph nodes.

Sentinel lymph node dissection has really changed the way that we manage breast cancer, melanoma.

Internal organs, lymphatic system, the works.

Some of these are swollen lymph nodes that look a little larger than others.

The patient has cancer, you want to know if the lymph nodes have cancer even before you go in.

Stage 3a, which means it's spread from the lung to the lymph nodes.

Cancer.

Cancer.

From cancer?

But when sentinel lymph node came into our treatment protocol, the surgeon basically looks for the single node that is the first draining lymph node of the cancer.

So what that means is if the lymph node did not have cancer, the woman would be saved from having unnecessary surgery.

They are such an embarrassment!

I have cancer.

We are all aware of the risk of cancer, but there's another disease that's destined to affect even more of us arthritis.

Might as well not allow them to take the test!

Like you have cancer,

Central nervous system and the lymphatic. Tell me the difference.

I won't go into this very much, but our technology, besides being able to tag tumor and metastatic lymph nodes with fluorescence, we can also use the same smart three part molecule to tag gadolinium onto the system so you can do this noninvasively.

So, there you see, it's a liver with colon cancer in it, and you see into the microscope a lymph node where cancer has invaded.

Joints, joint pain

Now in medical science, we don't want to know, necessarily, just how cancer works, we want to know how your cancer is different from my cancer.

So let me move to cancer.

It's brain cancer.

Rose... has cancer.

Cancer, wasn't it?

He died from acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

on your left hip into the lymphatic sack.

Tell me the difference between the central nervous system and the lymphatic.

He died of cancer.

My wife died of cancer.

Tom died of cancer.

You have cancer.

There are words that we're truly afraid of.

It's a system of systems.

Well, so what I read on WebMD

In those days, I was living in a fool's paradise.
