    This study investigated hyperthermia treatment for neoplastic tumors in rabbits using the Therma Tech 2,000 device. Temperature measurements were taken during radiofrequency energy application to assess treatment effects.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Therapeutic Technology

    Context:

    • Hyperthermia therapy is a developing treatment for neoplastic tumors.
    • Clinical hyperthermia equipment has seen gradual improvements.
    • The Therma Tech 2,000 utilizes specific radiofrequency (RF) energy at 13.56MHz.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the effects of hyperthermia on VX2 tumors in a rabbit model.
    • To measure temperatures during RF-induced hyperthermia treatment.
    • To assess the performance of the Therma Tech 2,000 in a preclinical setting.

    Summary:

    • Rabbits with VX2 tumors underwent hyperthermia treatment.
    • Radiofrequency energy was delivered using the Therma Tech 2,000 at 13.56MHz.
    • In-vivo temperature measurements were recorded during the procedure.
