This study optimized regional hyperthermia using a novel MRI-hyperthermia hybrid system. Simultaneous imaging and treatment in patients mark a significant advance for deep-seated tumor therapy.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering

Context:

  • Regional hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy/radiotherapy is a promising approach for deep-seated tumors.
  • Optimizing this therapy requires non-invasive imaging of tissue changes and temperature distribution.
  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers potential for tissue characterization and thermometry.

Purpose:

  • To optimize regional hyperthermia treatment through non-invasive, 3D imaging of tissue changes and temperature distribution.
  • To develop and evaluate a novel MRI-hyperthermia hybrid system for simultaneous treatment and monitoring.

Summary:

  • A new MRI-hyperthermia hybrid system, integrating an innovative applicator and an open MRI, was developed.
  • The system successfully enabled simultaneous MRI and regional hyperthermia in patients for the first time.
