| Research Abstract |
The construction of effective cancer therapy system is important subject for human. There are some methods of cancer therapy (for example, surgical therapy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy). One of them is appropriately selected according to the part of cancer. However, it is difficult to treat cancer as well as early treatment when it has a relapse of cancer. There may be a limit on the therapy condition. Especially, liver cancer has high possibility of relapse, and it is not easy to access to the part of cancer because of depth. Therefore, therapy of liver cancer is too difficult. In this study, we examined the protocol of treatment in implantable hyperthermia utilizing the heater combined thermosensitive magnetic material with metal. This method has little burden to human body, and it is easy to treat cancer repeatedly. As a result, we could analyze the temperature distribution from the heater which is necessary to derive the effective method of arrangement.
