Although this regards prostate cancer (not applicable to a female patient) I think this is the info you're looking for. Quote: Once the host recognizes the antigenic material implanted, it is hoped that the circulating humoral immunologic cells would then attack the host's recurrent Prostate Cancer cells. This technique has been successful in other types of tumors. Our site is one of a front line of sites to study the Vaccine in the treatment of Prostate Cancer.

Tricky terms
Subject: Tricky terms
If you keep a notebook with alphabetical tabs, you could make yourself a heading under SIGN, and you could also enter the word under all letters it might be pronounced as. That's what I used to do. Saved a lot of time in the long run, especially when you don't have enough information about the patient's problem to know what system or body part they are checking.

latin terms
 Here is the question - how do you type the word "stat" meaning immediately? Its a latin derivitive like n.p.o. , p.r.n. etc, and those are typed in lower case with periods. So would it be "stat." I have also seen it typed STAT with no period. I can't find it anywhere to back up my choice. Any ideas??? Or where to look?? Sue

The pathology shows a primary cutaneous malignant melanoma with a breadth lode depth of 0.6 millimeters.
Does this make sense or am I hearing it totally wrong!? I do a lot of melanoma reports but have never had the doctor use this term. Then again -- she says in a different part of the report "mid thoracic back lesion".
