The Academy of Radiology Research thanks Congress and the President for their support of the omnibus appropriations bill.

Clinical trials using patients' own immune cells to target tumors have yielded promising results. However, this approach usually works only if the patients also receive large doses of drugs designed to help immune cells multiply rapidly, and those drugs have life-threatening side effects.

That way, the drugs reach only their intended targets, greatly reducing the risk to the patient.
