“Quo Vadis” Oncologic Hyperthermia?

Figure 1

The main heating variations according to the targeted volume. The ablation (a) targets small volume with high SAR, while the local solutions ((b) and (c)) focus the electromagnetic energy from outside, and their SAR density is much lower, not making any coagulative processes; the part-body (d) and the whole-body (e) treatments are nonfocused techniques for temperature increase of a large targeted volume or the complete system.
