    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Controlling cancer with hyperthermia requires understanding how tumor and normal tissue physiology, including pH, oxygen levels (pO2), and blood flow, change with temperature. This research highlights current findings and challenges in documenting these in vivo factors.
