起步晚于美国和欧洲的日本的癌温热疗法的临床和基础研究,大有超过外国的趋势。本文归纳癌温热疗法的现状与研究如下。1.加温装置与加温技术在欧美,由于微波加温副作用少而成为主体。但因加温范围限定靠近体表,所以适应范围窄。以扩大加温范围为目的,在超声波加温和组织内加温方面寻求途径,是目前的现状。而在日本,已出现特殊的加温装置,并取得实际成效。包括①电波透镜型微波加温装置,将 The clinical and basic research of cancer hyperthermia in Japan that started later in the United States and Europe has greatly exceeded the trend of foreign countries. This article summarizes the current status and research of cancer hyperthermia therapy as follows. 1. Heating device and heating technology In Europe and the United States, microwave heating has become a major part due to fewer side effects. However, because the heating range is limited to the body surface, the adaptation range is narrow. For the purpose of expanding the scope of warming, the search for ways to increase ultrasonic heating and warming within tissues is the current status. In Japan, special heating devices have appeared and achieved practical results. Including 1 wave lens type microwave heating device, will
