Popular author John Grisham has written a new novel that promotes the use of focused ultrasound treatment.
Available for free as a Kindle e-book on Amazon.com, The Tumor is a fictional account of a 35-year-old father named Paul, who is diagnosed with a brain tumor and dies nine months later despite having received invasive brain surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, according to the Focused Ultrasound Foundation.
The book then explores an alternate future in 2025, in which Paul is diagnosed with the same brain tumor but receives several rounds of life-sustaining focused ultrasound treatment before the tumor eventually claims his life.
Grisham serves as a board member for the Focused Ultrasound Foundation.
