Effect of 8-MHz radiofrequency-capacitive regional hyperthermia with strong superficial cooling for unresectable or recurrent colorectal cancer.
A well-known disadvantage of a radiofrequency-capacitive device for deep-seated tumours is preferential heating of the subcutaneous fat tissue. The authors previously developed the hyperthermia with their own external cooling unit and achieved strong superficial cooling, and reported its usefulness for the reduction of the preferential heating. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate t...
متن کاملRadiotherapy with 8 MHz radiofrequency-capacitive regional hyperthermia for pain relief of unresectable and recurrent colorectal cancer.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the pain relief in patients with unresectable and recurrent colorectal cancer treated with radiation plus 8 MHz radiofrequency-capacitive regional hyperthermia and to identify predictors of the good outcome. METHODS Between February 1986-May 2003, 41 patients with primarily unresectable and recurrent colorectal cancer that caused pain were treat...
متن کاملAn induction heating device using planar coil with high amplitude alternating magnetic fields for magnetic hyperthermia.
BACKGROUND Induction heating devices using the induction coil and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are the way that the magnetic hyperthermia is heading. OBJECTIVE To facilitate the induction heating of in vivo magnetic nanoparticles in hyperthermia experiments on large animals. METHODS An induction heating device using a planar coil was designed with a magnetic field frequency of 328 kHz. The...
متن کاملESD effects in capacitive RF MEMS switches
RF MEMS have shown very attractive characteristics in automotive, communication, aeronautic and aerospace applications, thanks to its low mass and volume, low losses, low power consumption, high isolation and a wide operative frequency range. Moreover they have demonstrated good integration with electronics which show their ability to built-in innovative RF architectures [1]. Nevertheless the a...
متن کاملEvaluation of side effects of radiofrequency capacitive hyperthermia with magnetite on the blood vessel walls of tumor metastatic lesion surrounding the abdominal large vessels: an agar phantom study
BACKGROUND Magnetite used in an 8-MHz radiofrequency (RF) capacitive heating device can increase the temperature of a specific site up to 45°C. When treating a metastatic lesion around large abdominal vessels via hyperthermia with magnetite, heating-induced adverse effects on these vessels need to be considered. Therefore, this study examined hyperthermia-induced damage to blood vessel walls in...
