[Critical notes on thermodosimetry and a hypothesis on the use of computerized tomography in electromagnetic oncologic hyperthermia].
Introduction - Dose and dose-rate in radiotherapy and in electromagnetic hyperthermia - Isodose curves and isotherm curves - Isotherm curves as a function of the target temperature - Dose and target-volume - Why computerized tomography in oncologic hyperthermia CAT and the geometry of normal and pathologic tissues. CAT and the body walls; interfaces between adjacent tissue layers - CAT, water content and dielectric properties of tissues - CAT and thermic properties of tissues - Conclusions.
