Improvement of water bolus
Prof. Dr. Ir. Maarten Paulides (TU Eindhoven, NL) and Dr. Tomas Drizdal (Czech Technical University Prague) have published a paper on a water bolus for the treatment of Head and Neck Cancer in conjunction with a hyperthermia device.
Maarten Paulides: “increasing the temperature in the water bolus enables clinicians to obtain an even better heating of the tumor volume, thus reaching potentially a better clinical outcome”.
