Abstract

Studies of the effects of hyperthermia on neoplastic tumors have been developed on the basis of biology. At the some time, machines for the clinical application of hyperthermia have been slowly improved. The Therma Tech 2,000, however, unlike most other pieces of hyperthermia equipment, generates RF energy at 13.56MHz. In the present study, rabbits bearing VX2 tumors were given hyperthermia treatment and measurements of their temperatures were taken.
