Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Includes bibliographical references and index.
• "The book includes material related to all three kinds of thermal therapies: hyperthermia (when peak tissue temperature is raised to 43oC or below), high temperature therapy (when peak tissue temperature is raised above 43oC), and cryoablation (when minimum tissue temperature is brought to below freezing temperature). This book is intended for engineers, physicists, interventional radiologists, surgeons, and others who work (or intend to work) in the field of thermal therapy (i.e., hyperthermia, Radiofrequency or RF ablation, Microwave or MW ablation, Laser ablation, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound mediated ablation, cryoablation, nanoparticle-mediated ablation, cauterization, etc.) and/or are involved in developing novel approaches in thermal therapy. The book can also be used as a reference book or text-book in advanced 'project based' undergraduate or graduate courses where the goal is to familiarize students with various technical and clinical approaches related to the application of heat in oncology and surgery"--
