But this form of the disease is usually fatal as the inhaled anthrax spores began producing toxins that kill tissues in the chestcavity and cause bleeding in the lungs.
By delivering nearly imperceptible vibrations to select areas of the chest, KOR-fx activates neural pathways that subconsciously monitor the vibrations of the chestcavity that naturally occur when speaking, laughing or crying.
Immerz is showing its KOR-fx technology at CES, sort of like a wear-able subwoofer you place on your chest that translates audio signals from a film or videogame into vibrations pumped directly into your chestcavity.
While the patient is still on the operating table, a lead disc is slipped behind the breast tissue to protect the chestcavity, and an eight inch wide electron beam focused directly on the area surrounding the tumour.
