Several seemingly unrelated phenomena have one explanation:
- Abscopal and bystander effects.
- Surgical removal of a colon tumor is followed by hepatic metastasis.
- Cancer dormancy.
- Primary tumor impedes growth of metastases.
- Angiostatin secreted by a tumor prevents the growth of micro-metastases
Abscopal and bystander effects are phenomena observed following irradiation of the organism. They follow also other insults, chemical or physical.
In the presentation:
1. Explanation of and presentation of some abscopal phenomena.
2. Introduction of three rules (laws) that have to be considered in order to explain these phenomena.
3. Since medicine ignores these laws, it lacks essential concepts to understand these and other related phenomena
