Microwave hyperthermia controlled by microwave radiometry: technical aspects and first clinical results.
Microwave systems combining microwave heating generators (434, 915 or 2450 MHz) with microwave radiometers (1-2 GHz or 2-4 GHz) have been used for two years in hyperthermia therapy. Technical aspects (generator, radiometer, applicator), experiments and first clinical results are detailed.
