Absorbed Power Distributions from Coherent Microwave Arrays for Localized Hyperthermia
TL;DR: In this article, the absorbed power distributions in a homogeneous muscle-like tissue due to a planar coherent array consisting of 16 small direct contact applicators at 434 and 915 MHz are calculated, assuming various relative phases and amplitudes are compared with that of a single aperture source at the same frequency with the same overall dimensions.

Biophysics and Technology of Electromagnetic Hyperthermia
TL;DR: According to Licht (1965), the earliest medical applications of electric current were developed during the 1830s and 1840s and included the coagulation of blood in aneurysms and the destruction of fungoid growths.

Local microwave hyperthermia in treatment of advanced prostatic adenocarcinoma
S. Szmigielski,H. Zielinski,B. Stawarz,J. Gil,J. Sobczynski,G. Sokolska,Janusz Jeljaszewicz,Gerhard Pulverer +7 more
TL;DR: Involution of the prostatic tumor in responders was accompanied by improvement of the general clinical and urological state and in two responders bone metastases, documented scintigraphically before therapy, disappeared.
Book ChapterDOI
Heat delivery and thermometry in clinical hyperthermia.
TL;DR: In general, non-invasive thermometry in clinical hyperthermia remains a distant goal, although developments in microwave radiometry may lead to systems with suitable spatial, temporal and temperature resolutions for use in superficial treatments.
