There are also real challenges, however, involved in the total destruction of tumors without destroying healthy tissue surrounding the tumor in the process. A detailed understanding of the propagation of thermal energy, induced heating, and tissue responses to heat is required to safely and successfully apply heat-based technologies in clinical oncology. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Application of Heat in Oncology\u003c\/i\u003e supplies this understanding, with a thorough, comprehensive overview of the principle and practice involved.
