Hyperthermia therapy (HT) is becoming a well-recognized method for the treatment of
cancer when combined with radiation or chemotherapy. There are many ways to heat a …

A variable frequency magnetic induction heating system has been developed for localized
hyperthermic treatment of deep-seated tumors via power deposition into arrays of 1-2 mm …

Magnetic induction heating of ferromagnetic implants can be used to produce highly
localized hyperthermia in deep seated tumors. We discuss the physical parameters which …

Heat therapies such as hyperthermia and thermoablation are very promising approaches in
the treatment of cancer. Compared with available hyperthermia modalities, magnetic fluid …

A magnetic induction heating system has been developed which we used to heat 1-to 2-mm
diameter ferromagnetic seeds surgically or stereotactically imbedded in tumors. The …

Localized tumor hyperthermia therapy has been intensively studied for the past three
decades. One engineering limitation has been the difficulty of specifically targeting …

Purpose: We investigate a new heat delivery technique for the local treatment of solid
tumors. The technique involves injecting a formulation that solidifies to form an implant in …

Magnetic hyperthermia uses the therapeutic heat given by the magnetic particles (MPs) in
the alternating magnetic field for the healing of various cancers. The low Curie temperature …

Interstitial techniques for hyperthermia therapy of cancer continue to evolve in response to
requirements for better localization and control over heating of deep seated tissues …

The use of hyperthermia in the treatment of cancers is appealing because, as a physical
therapy, hyperthermia would have far fewer restrictive side effects than chemotherapy and …
