Despite the cutting-edge name that sounds like a sci-fi ray gun, this technology apparently parties like it's 1999. No company names, locations, or flashy updates—just good old stagnant progress, folks! This is the health equivalent of binge-watching a show stuck on season one, except the show is lifesaving cancer tech and the season never ends.
