Novel multi-sensor probe for monitoring bladder temperature during loco-regional chemo-hyperthermia for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: technical feasibility study
Abstract:Background and Purpose: The effectiveness of locoregional hyperthermia combined with intravesical instillation of mitomycin C to reduce the risk of recurrence and progression of intermediate-and high-risk nonmuscleinvasive bladder cancer is currently investigated in clinical trials. Clinically effective locoregional hyperthermia delivery necessitates adequate thermal dosimetry; thus, optimal thermometry methods are needed to monitor accurately the temperature distribution throughout the bladder wall. The aim o… Show more
