[Development of methods of local hyperthermia to achieve more marked tumor pathomorphism].
Regular investigations on application of hyperthermia in oncology have been carried out since the second half of the 1950s. The usage of distant tissues heating faces considerable difficulties in maintenance of therapeutic temperature in the whole volume of the tumor. Thus, the use of interstitial hyperthermia is promising, especially, ferromagnetic hyperthermia which causes damage not only to central but also to peripheral zones of tumors. Light and electron microscopies have not revealed specific features of cell damage by which ferromagnetic hyperthermia might differ from other methods of antitumor treatment.
