The Cell Processor Helps Cure Cancer (again)

Cell chip helps cure cancer (again)

Sony really hates cancer. So should you.

PS3's Cell chip is being used to monitor a tumor's growth through CT (computed tomography) scans. According to [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], the Cell chip may be able to speed up CT scan results tenfold. That would offer earlier opportunities for diagnosis, treatment and preventative measures. Due to the mass scale production of the Cell chip for PS3s, researchers are hoping this will provide an affordable way of offering medical facilities the powerful computing necessary for advanced CT scans.

This isn't the only time the PS3 has been used in the scientific community. PS3 Fanboy readers are familiar with [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], which is used to analyze the way proteins fold. Looks like the Cell chip inside the PS3 really is quite incredible.

<@Gate> Being a cook is hard.
<@Gate> I would know, my dad is a cook.
<@hesham8> Gate, what the **** are you talking about!? All you do is yell "BAM!" and throw chives everywhere.
<@hesham8> I do the same thing at weddings, except I yell "CONGRATULATIONS" and throw rice.
<@Gate> hesham8, you're a fag.
