they've started growing,

deadly cancers sooner,
nekih od ovih smrtonosnih kancera,
miniaturization might get us there.
može dovesti do toga.
for looking at a tissue specimen,
za posmatranje uzorka nekog tkiva
with years of specialized training
specijalističkom obukom
of mine at Rice University,
sa Univerziteta Rajs,
is miniaturize that whole microscope

da specijalista pogleda slike,
normal versus cancerous cells.

da bismo ih mogli svuda poneti.

allows us to do just that.
nam upravo to omogućava.
the parts that make up the detector

zapravo menjaju svoja svojstva
into gold nanoparticles,
u zlatne nanočestice,

a cancer nanodetector
nedavno smo napravili nanodetektor raka
into the body and look for tumors.
da putuje po telu i traži tumore.
for tumor invasion:
da traži invaziju tumora:
that tumors need to make to spread.
