Oncothermia as Personalized Treatment Option

Figure 1

A special point of the Weibull function: the value, where 𝑡=𝑡₀ (1/𝑒≈0.63). The derivative in the inflexion point equals (𝑛/𝑡₀)⋅(1/𝑒)≈0.63∗𝑛, when 𝑡₀=1. The popular meanings of the parameters are 𝑡₀ is the stretching in 𝑥-direction (time transformation), 𝑛 is the stretching in 𝑦-direction (incline of the curve). The parameters which have to be defined are the 𝐹, 𝑆, 𝑇, 𝑡₀, and 𝛼, the finishing and starting power, the full treatment duration, the 63% of the power increase, and the slope of the power increase, respectively.
