Abstract

The effect of sequencing of the total course of hyperthermia and irradiation on local tumor control was studied on a murine tumor system (RIF). The results showed a 20% control rate for the treatment arms: (a) total course of irradiation followed by total course of hyperthermia; or (b) total course of hyperthermia followed by total course of irradiation. A superior (70%) control rate was achieved when irradiation and heat were given close to each other on each session. The detailed results are presented.
