Johnny,
May I suggest you use the various search engines on your browser to
reach those web sites that will find cryosurgery. There is much about
it now, but off hand I can't think of which web sites specifically has
been talking about it. There are so many medical websites that are
specific and resourseful.
YOU may wish to contact the American Medical Association as to which
facilities are treating or performing clinical trials and you may wish
to contact the National Cancer Institute 1-800-4cancer for information
about treatments describing cryosurgery and they also have a
comprehensive list of clinical trials that may include cyrosurgery.
HOpe this helps.
God Bless YOu and good luck. Pls when you write your thesis maybe you
will share with us as we have the need to learn and pass on to those
that have this disease as well.
