Hyperthermia treatment for cancer involves the application of heat to cancerous tissues to selectively destroy cancer cells or enhance the effectiveness of other treatments. It is typically performed using various methods, including local hyperthermia (focused on specific tumor areas) or whole body hyperthermia. Techniques may include external devices, such as microwave or ultrasound, or internal methods like interstitial hyperthermia or intracavitary hyperthermia. At Infuze MD, we safely utilize far infrared technology to target specific tumor areas.

The goal is to raise the temperature of the tumor or surrounding tissues to a specific therapeutic range (typically around 102 and 107 degrees farenheit) to induce cell death, enhance blood flow, increase oxygenation, and improve the effectiveness of radiation therapy or chemotherapy. Hyperthermia treatment is often administered in conjunction with other cancer treatments under medical supervision.
