*Rats with complete tumor regression and without tumor recurrence within 120 days after complete regression of tumor.
**Thermoablation effect was observed that resulted in the complete regression of tumor and absence of tumor recurrence. It has to be noted that this effect (thermoablation) is not observed after application of microwave hyperthermia (43-44°C within 60 min; our data).
