PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and a method for killing cancer cells of a subject, the subject having cancer cells and healthy cells.SOLUTION: The apparatus includes a plurality of first molecules 40 configured to be coupled to the cancer cells 44 to a greater extent than to the healthy cells, in response to being administered to the subject. A plurality of clusters 42 of phase-change molecules are provided, each of the clusters being coupled to a respective one of the first molecules. An energy transmission unit 50 kills the cancer cells coupled to the first molecules by heating the cancer cells, by transmitting energy, which selectively heats the clusters, toward the clusters. Other embodiments are also described. |
