March 2010 podcast
In the March podcast we find out how US scientists have made an important step toward personalised treatment for cancer, and discuss whether gas hobs can increase cancer risk.
We also hear about the latest clinical trial results, showing that breast cancer can be treated successfully with fewer, higher doses of radiotherapy. And our reporter Anna Lacey discovers how our researchers are developing better ways to deliver radiotherapy to patients with a type of brain tumour known as glioblastoma multiforme.
