NCT03037840

Brief Summary

Studies have shown that tumor specific amplitude-modulated frequencies of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields that is associated with biofeedback upon exposure to in cancer patients. However, such discovery in other cancer patients are rare. And whether tumor specific frequencies can be found in Asian cancer patients remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to detect the tumor specific frequencies of Asian cancer patients in vivo.
