Abstract
The potential role of hyperthermia in the management of human cancer will be difficult to assess until heating techniques and thermometry systems capable of delivering and monitoring safe, predictable and reproducible treatments are developed. These requirements present major challenges to biomedical engineers and physicists and are currently far from being solved. However, significant improvements to the technology associated with clinical hyperthermia have been achieved during the 1980s and the purpose of this chapter is to present an overview of some of the techniques which are currently available.
