An Assessment of Local Hyperthermia in Clinical Practice

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 1986
A total of 116 small superficial tumours have been treated by radiation alone, hyperthermia alone, or radiation and hyperthermia combined in a Phase I/II study. Most tumours were metastases or local recurrences of adenocarcinoma of breast but other histologies were involved including melanoma. Hyperthermia was delivered predominantly by microwaves, but

Local hyperthermia for prostate cancer

Urology, 1991
Hyperthermia for treatment of cancer is known to be beneficial both in itself and in conjunction with other forms of treatment, particularly radiotherapy. We have developed a new machine for local hyperthermia (41-44 degrees C) to the prostate, by transmission of microwaves (915 MHz) via a rectal probe.

Thermometry considerations in localized hyperthermia

Medical Physics, 1978
The introduction of local hyperthermia as a method of cancer therapy implies the necessity of quantitative measurements of the thermal dose. Our intention is to describe the nature of the problem, both physically and physiologically, with illustrations drawn from thermographic measurements in phantoms and in animals.

Local Tumour Hyperthermia as Immunotherapy for Metastatic Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 2014
Abstract Local tumour hyperthermia for cancer treatment is currently used either for ablation purposes as an alternative to surgery or less frequently, in combination with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy to enhance the effects of those traditional therapies.

Design of ultrasonic transducers for local hyperthermia

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 1981
Abstract Computer simulations of the interdependence of different pairs of the parameters of spherically focusing ultrasonic transducers were performed, taking the ultrasonic attenuation in biological tissue into consideration. The maximum distance and gain of the last intensity maximum were calculated with different frequencies between 0.3 and 5 MHz

Local Hyperthermia for Deep Tumors

1990
Hyperthermia for superficial tumors has been considered standard treatment since 1984, based on multiple reports showing synergistic therapeutic advantage in combination with radiotherapy compared to irradiation alone (Table 1). Results of external hyperthermia treatments for deep tumors combined with irradiation or chemotherapy have shown significant ...

Localized Hyperthermia and Radiation in Cancer Therapy

International Journal of Radiation Biology and Related Studies in Physics, Chemistry and Medicine, 1985
Clinical researches in hyperthermia have recently expanded rapidly with the increase in our knowledge of the biological effects of heat on experimental systems. This article provides background information on the biological rationale and current status of technologies concerning thermometry and heating equipment for the application of hyperthermia to ...
