“…With hyperthermia alone, it appears not possible to achieve local tumour control. In vivo experiments with rhabdomyosarcoma's implanted in the flank of Wag/Rij rats show that the surviving fraction of the tumour after 0.5 hours at 44°C was still 0.24, resulting in a grow-delay of only several days (Van Geel et al, 1994).…”

“…Whilst available clinical data on the combination of interstitial or intracavitary radiotherapy (IRT), i.e. brachytherapy and interstitial hyperthermia (IHT)' were recently summarized by Seegenschmiedt and Sauer (1992), limited experimental in vivo studies (Miller et al, 1978;Papadopoulos et al, 1989;Mieler et al, 1989;Ruifrok et al, 1991;Van Geel et al, 1994) have been published to date. To gain an insight in the combined treatment, e.g.…”
