Temperature controller for hyperthermia devices

Abstract

Temperature controller monitors and controls temperature in local region of tumor. Medical grade thermocouples are inserted in or near tumor, controller pulse modulates radio frequency diathermy power source to maintain temperature within 0.2 C. System may be extended to control diathermy of more than one tumor or patient.
