Strong correlation between specific heat capacity and water content in human tissues suggests preferred heat deposition in malignant tumors upon electromagnetic irradiation
Purpose Tumor perfusion is considered to be the principal factor determining the build-up of therapeutically effective thermal fields. This assumes that malignancies have lower perfusions than their homologous tissues. This assumption, however, ignores the fact that several tumor types have higher p...
