Hyperthermia sponsors and centers
From research to clinical application

The National Cancer Institute (USA) has recognized hyperthermia as a treatment method for cancer, and is promoting research, development, and further advancement with tens of millions of dollars. European institutions were just as generous. Deutsche Krebshilfe (German Cancer Aid) made it a top priority to declare hyperthermia to be a new, effective treatment against cancer, and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Foundation) is one of its most important promoters. Dutch health insurers financed a definitive study on the treatment of pelvic tumors with hyperthermia. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) ensures the quality of hyperthermia research in Europe and sponsors hyperthermia studies.

Many of the devices and equipment used worldwide for hyperthermia research and therapy were developed and manufactured by BSD Medical Corporation. Please find a summary of research centers using the “high-end” technology of BSD Medical Corporation for the application of hyperthermia in our image brochure.

Additional information regarding hyperthermia, its indications, and certified centers where it is used, is available on the website of the interdisciplinary working group for hyperthermia (Interdisziplinäre Arbeitsgruppe Hyperthermie (IAH)), a sub-organization of the German Cancer Society (Deutsche Krebsgesellschaft).
