Clinical Practice of Whole-Body Hyperthermia: New Directions

  • Chapter
Thermoradiotherapy and Thermochemotherapy

Part of the book series: Medical Radiology ((Med Radiol Radiat Oncol))

Abstract

Whole-body hyperthermia (WBH) is a modality that was developed to treat disseminated cancer (LARKIN et al. 1977; Pettigrew et al. 1974a, b). It is generally used in combination with chemotherapy (Bull et al. 1987, 1992b; Engelhardt et al. 1982, 1990; Koga et al. 1985; Page et al. 1992a; Robins et al. 1993), and less frequently with radiation; although therapies combining WBH with cytokines also promise to become effective anticancer treatments (Anjum and Fleischmann 1992; Doleire et al. 1992; Geehan et al. 1993; Makino et al. 1993a; Robins et al. 1989; Tapazaglou et al. 1990).In Addition to its major application to treat metastic disease, WBH may be useful with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment.
