    摘要: A combined radiotherapy and hyperthermia therapy is provided, including inducing hyperthermia in at least a portion of a target area—e.g., a tumor or a portion of a tumor or targeted cancerous cells—is provided. Biomolecules labeled with at least one radionuclide suitable for radiotherapy are provided and introduced into a patient; targeted RF absorption enhancers are provided and introduced into a patient; and a hyperthermia generating RF signal is directed via toward the target cells, thereby warming the radionuclide-labeled biomolecules and targeted RF absorption enhancers bound to target cells. The targeted RF absorption enhancers may, in a manner of speaking, add one or more RF absorption frequencies to cells in the target area, which will permit a hyperthermia generating RF signal at that frequency or frequencies to heat the targeted cells. Biomolecules labeled with at least one radionuclide suitable for radiotherapy may be used for both radiotherapy and as RF absorption enhancers for the hyperthermia generating RF signal.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for treating body tissue by use of thermal treatment material. The thermal treatment material to be injected into target tissue of a body includes: a carrier substrate; a plurality of first particles operative to generate thermal energy in response to an alternating electromagnetic field applied external to the body; and a plurality of second particles, each of the second particles having a core and a coating surrounding the core. The coating is dissolved at a preset temperature by the thermal energy so that the visibility of the core in an external imaging system is affected as the coating is dissolved to expose the core. The variation of the visibility can be used as an indicator to determine if the material has reached the preset temperature.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method as well as to a system for the local heating of a target region of an object by varying the magnetization of magnetic or magnetizable substances. A magnetic field is then generated whose magnetic field strength varies in space in such a manner that a first sub-region (301) of low magnetic field strength and a second sub-region (302) which encloses the first sub-region and has a higher magnetic field strength are formed in the target region. Subsequently, the position in space of the two sub-regions in the target region is varied with a given frequency for so long that the particles are heated to a desired temperature due to frequent variation of the magnetization.

    摘要: A brachytherapy device includes a radiation source and a multi-cannula delivery system for implantation of the radiation source into a body tissue site. The radiation source may be, for example, a substantially straight round wire, a substantially straight flat wire, a detented wire, an embossed wire, a bristled wire, a shaped resilient wire, a twisted round wire, a twisted flat wire, or a coil with or without an inner core, and is adapted for implantation into a body tissue site and for delivery of radiation to the body tissue site. The multi-cannula delivery system includes an outer cannula, an outer stylet, an inner cannula, and an inner stylet. Different configurations of the radiation source according to embodiments of the invention improve distribution of the radiation field in the longitudinal direction and resistance to migration of the radiation source inside a patient's body. The multi-cannula delivery system provides for faster and more accurate placement of the radiation source.
