Abstract
Several techniques which induce regional hyperthermia are now investigated: capacitive, inductive and radiative methods of electromagnetic heating. The latter method is used in the commercially available BSD 1000/2000 device (Fa. BSD, Medical Corporation, Salt Lake City, USA). In our department a feasibility study was initiated to evaluate heating equipment and tolerance to treatment in tumours at half depth and depth.
