Features: Tumor hyperthermia is a new cancer treatment technology that is in its early stages of development and is considered the fifth cancer treatment method after surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. The author briefly introduces the basic theory of tumor hyperthermia, the mechanism of high-temperature killing of cancer cells, the performance and treatment techniques of various advanced tumor hyperthermia machines at home and abroad, as well as the latest progress in hyperthermia and tumor immunity research in 13 chapters and 53 sections. This book focuses on clinical tumor hyperthermia as the main line, elaborates on the synergistic killing effect of hyperthermia, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy on cancer cells through detailed experimental research and clinical cancer treatment data, and lists successful experiences in clinical tumor hyperthermia. This book serves as an important reference for basic researchers in tumor hyperthermia, clinical oncologists, and radiotherapy professionals, and provides significant reference value for clinicians in formulating comprehensive cancer treatment plans.
