Inductive hyperthermia treatment plans were built using Comsol Multiphysics software for patients with breast cancer metastasis to lymph nodes. To assess the influence of electromagnetic irradiation on temperature increase in metastatic lymph nodes, treatment plans were based on moderate hyperthermia parameters (< 42 °C). The proposed technology can be used to provide a more personalized approach to treatment planning for patients with locally advanced breast cancer receiving combination therapy which involves neoadjuvant chemotherapy and expand eligibility for organ-preserving surgery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
