Silver nucleolar organizer region assessment in tumor-cells from breast-cancer patients treated by extremely-low-frequency magnetic-field.

This study assessed the value of silver staining of nucleolar organizer regions (AgNORs) in tumor cells as a potential technique for the estimation of the action of ELF magnetic field on breast cancer. The light and electron microscopy was used for analysis of tissue specimens from 4 breast cancer patients after ELF magnetotherapy and 18 untreated persons with malignant and benign breast lesions. All patients had surgical removal of neoplasms.
