Light syringe could target cancer

From Cnet news:

“Professor Kishan Dholakia and Dr. Frank Gunn-Moore–both of the University of St. Andrews in Scotland–say the “light saber” could be used routinely on cancer patients within the next five years.

The method would allow chemotherapy drugs to be pumped directly into cancer cells. The researchers believe hard-to-reach cancers such as that of the pancreas would especially benefit. “
