Abstract:The treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) presents significant challenges, with median survival rates remaining low despite standard-of-care therapies. This study expands upon the findings of a novel approach to managing GBM, namely cytostatic hypothermia, through the computational evaluation of a fully implantable system. Our proposed system utilizes a multi-probe array and a novel artificial internal circulation system (AICS) to achieve homogeneous cooling within the brain without overheating any portion of the bo… Show more
