Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hyperthermia therapy is a type of medical treatment in which body tissue is exposed to high temperatures to damage and kill cancer cells or to make cancer cells more sensitive to the effects of radiation and certain anti-cancer drugs. When combined with radiation therapy, it is called thermoradiography. Local hyperthermia for certain small tumors is generally accepted, similar to surgically removing a tumor. Whole-body hyperthermia is generally considered to be a promising but experimental cancer treatment. Hyperthermia is only useful for certain kinds of cancer, and is not in widespread use. Hyperthermia is most effective when used alongside conventional therapies, so it is normally used as an adjuvant therapy. The most effective uses are currently being studied.
