Hyperthermia Therapy Physics

  • Chapter
Radiation Therapy Physics

Part of the book series: Medical Radiology ((Med Radiol Radiat Oncol))

Abstract

Hyperthermia involves the use of heat as a cancer treatment modality. It is occasionally used alone, but most often is employed in conjunction with ionizing radiation, and more recently, with chemotherapy (Dahl and Mella 1990). The goal of hyperthermia is to raise the temperature of the targeted region to therapeutic levels (approximately 42°–45°C) while keeping adjacent normal tissues at subtherapeutic temperatures.
