ttfields for lung cancer vs meso - is it the same thing or different

Veteran · · 0 views
So I keep seeing TTFields mentioned for lung cancer online and now my oncologist is talking about it for my meso. Are they using the same device or is it different depending on what you got.

I'm Stage II pleural, had surgery in December, and we're supposed to start chemo next month. Doc mentioned pairing it with TTFields but didn't really explain if it's the lung cancer version or if meso gets its own thing.

Anyone know if the evidence is as solid for meso as it is for lung cancer. I'm not trying to be a guinea pig here and I want to know what I'm actually signing up for.

Also curious if any of you vets have gone this route. I'm at the VA in San Diego and they seem pretty solid on the treatment side but I want to ask the right questions.
