Minimally Invasive Wireless Device to Provide Options for Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Surgery has been the sole option that delivers a solution for those diagnosed with colorectal cancer. However, surgery is often complicated by disease relapse at the original site where the tumor was found when residual microscopic tumor cells are left behind during the surgery. Although it can lead to harmful side effects, chemotherapy is a treatment choice that is frequently given along with surgery.
