ABSTRACT
Hyperthermia is one of the therapies used against cancer, however, it is necessary to improve this technique to avoid healthy tissue damage due to temperature rising. This work presents different alternatives to achieve a local electromagnetic hyperthermia. Results of using different materials to increase local heating are shown. These material can be introduced inside tumors, o near them, to take advantage of magnetic and electric fields. The materials tested were: sodium chloride, ferrite and ferrofluids. The measurements were performed inside a TX150 phantom and using the unique impulse technique.
