While the establishment of hyperthermia as a routine therapy awaits the results of ongoing controlled clinical trials, the advancement in biological sciences, physics and engineering, clinical physics and dosimetry, as well as clinical implementation continues to make advances. A first attempt to document these advances was made by Dr. Gilbert H. Nussbaum in the Medical Physics Monograph No. 8 of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine, published by the American Institute of Physics in 1982. This monograph is an extension of the above work. The material is divided into six catagories: Hyperthermia Biology, Physics and Engineering, Clinical Physics, Dosimetry and Modeling, Analysis of Clinical Results, and Quality Assurance. There are numerous methods of inducing hyperthermia and there are also equally numerous clinical strategies as expected in an experimental modality. A conscious effort has been made to document the basic information and thus provide an objective learning tool. The material contained herein will be of interest to biologists, physicists, engineers, and physicians who are actively involved in the field of hyperthermia, as well as to those who are anxious to learn about this new field. Some sections provide extremely practical information needed in the routine delivery of treatments and, therefore, will be of benefit to nurses and technologists. We also believe that this material provides insight and guidance for future research.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the multitude of different forms of thermotherapy in connection with aspects of thermal physiology and cell biology. The aim is to elucidate the scientific background of therapeutic actions and to promote effective new applications at the beginning of the 21st century. Significant to these purposes is cooperation between experts in the fields of thermal biology, hyper thermic oncology, rheumatology, and balneology, as represented by the editors. Emphasis has been placed on a balanced choice of contributions, in the hope that this will enable the reader to draw helpful connections between the principles and prac tice of thermotherapy. It is apparent that a wealth of published data exists concerning thermotherapy on the one hand and thermal physiology on the other. However, in the former field empirical aspects of therapeutic usefulness prevail, while in the latter, aspects of basic science are in the foreground. Accordingly, the sources where published data may be found are quite different and as a consequence many findings of potential mutual interest published in medical journals have gone unnoticed by readers of physio logical journals, and vice versa. It is hoped that this book will bridge the gap and encourage researchers' efforts to integrate the available knowledge to attain optimal coordination of clinical and theoretical aspects.

This book is targeted for medical and other health care professionals (Students and in practice) like Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapists, Chiropractors, Athletic Trainers, etc who deal with superficial and deep heating modalities on a daily basis. This book gives outline about skin anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology and modalities used and its effect at cellular level. How utilization of heat can assist in rehabilitation of a patient and what precautions needs to be exercised. This book also features a chapter by Dr. Jerrold Petrofsky a Nobel Prize nominated professor discussing how age, ethnicity, race and other factors interacts with each other while dealing with heat.

Over the past several years, interest and activity regarding the use of heat to treat human malignancies has grown very rapidly. Laboratory studies with cells and animals have established the potential of hyperthermia, used alone, or in combination with radiation or drugs, for improvement of the therapeutic ratio in cancer therapy. A growing body of clinical data suggests that hyperthermia, employed as an adjuvant and perhaps, as a primary therapeutic modality, can often effect rapid and substantial tumor regression while causing only relatively modest changes in adjacent normal tissues. Given the clinical observations to date and the rationale provided by biological and physiological laboratory investigations, the current, prodigious growth of clinical utilization of hyperthermia in surgical, medical and especially radiation oncology is not difficult to comprehend. However, the development of clinical hyperthermia as a safe, effective and quantitative cancer modality will depend critically on the extent to which the physics and physiology of local, regional and whole body heating of human tissue are understood and properly incorporated into the planning and administration of thermotherapy. Whatever its promise, ultimately, the value of hyperthermia as a clinical tool will be governed, and perhaps limited by the physical aspects of power deposition, heat transfer and thermometry in vivo. This book discusses this important topic in depth.
