Hyperthermia is a type of
treatment in which body tissue
is exposed to high temperatures
42+ºC), to damage and kill
cancer cells, or to make cancer
cells more sensitive to the
effects of radiation and certain
anticancer drugs. Local
hyperthermia treatment (heat
applied to a very small area,
such as a tumor) is a
well-established cancer
treatment method with a simple
basic principle: If a rise in
temperature can be
obtained for one hour within a
cancer tumor, the cancer cells
will be destroyed. Primary
malignant tumors have a bad
blood circulation, which make
them more sensitive to changes
in temperature.
