Abstract:We present data from localized heat inducement studies at both cellular and tissue levels along with a computational model built to predict the temperature increase and damage extent in tissues receiving hyperthermia treatment by a fiber-based active heater. This novel fiber-based active heater serves as a heat source and a temperature sensor. Five important insights are highlighted from this thesis work.First, heat-induced controlled cell deaths were observed experimentally in the three cell lines with MCF-10… Show more
