Deadly diet: Thai doctors battle cancer-causing fish dish

Description

Raw riverfish ground with spices and a dash of lime juice is a coveted culinary treat in Thailand's northeast. The pungent meal is quick, cheap and tasty, but it is also a favourite feast for parasites that cause a lethal liver cancer killing up to 20,000 Thais annually.
