Radiotherapy combined with deep regional hyperthermia in elderly and frail patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer: quality analysis of hyperthermia and impact on clinical results
Conclusion: The reproducibility of HT parameters between sessions was high. A moderately high CEM43T90 (> 2.4 min) for each HT session seems to be preferable for local control. RT combined with HT is a promising organ-preservation therapy for elderly and frail MIBC patients.PMID:37932002 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2023.2275540 (Source: International Journal of Hyperthermia)

Pregnancy outcomes of adenomyotic patients with primary infertility after high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment
CONCLUSIONS: HIFU treatment for adenomyosis could improve fertility of patients with primary infertility. HIFU is a promising therapeutic approach for patients with adenomyosis and infertility who wish to achieve pregnancy and have live birth deliveries.PMID:37903541 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2023.2264547 (Source: International Journal of Hyperthermia)

Combination cancer imaging and phototherapy mediated by membrane-wrapped nanoparticles

Many conventional treatments for solid-tumor cancers lack tumor specificity, which results in low efficacy and off-target damage to healthy tissues. Nanoparticle (NP)-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising minimally invasive treatment for solid-tumor cancers that has entered clinical trials. Traditionally, NPs used for PTT are coated with passivating agents and/or targeting ligands, but alternative coatings are being explored to enhance tu...

Application of the ESHO-QA guidelines for determining the performance of the LCA superficial hyperthermia heating system
CONCLUSIONS: The LCAs passed all QA guidelines requirements for superficial hyperthermia delivery when used singularly or in an array configuration. A further characterization of parameters such as antenna efficiency and heat transfer coefficients would be beneficial for translating experimental results to simulated values. Implementing the QA guidelines was time-consuming and demanding, requiring careful preparation and correct setup of antenna elements.PMID:37879635 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2023.2272578 (Source: International Journal of Hyperthermia)
