It covers research and clinical studies and trials on hyperthermia and other thermal therapies (e.g. thermal ablation, cryo therapies) which fall largely into the three main categories of clinical studies, biological studies, and physics/engineering studies on techniques of heat delivery and temperature measurement.

Hyperthermia, also known simply as overheating, is a condition in which an individual's body temperature is elevated beyond normal due to failed thermoregulation. The person's body produces or absorbs more heat than it dissipates.

Hyperthermia is an elevation of body temperature over the temperature set point, due to either too much heat production or not enough heat loss. [1] [7] Hyperthermia is thus not considered fever. [7]: 103 [40] Hyperthermia should not be confused with hyperpyrexia (which is a very high fever). [7]: 102
Medical journals are published regularly to communicate new research to clinicians, medical scientists, and other healthcare workers. This article lists academic journals that focus on the practice of medicine or any medical specialty. Journals are listed alphabetically by journal name, and also grouped by the subfield of medicine they focus on.
Hyperthermia therapy (or hyperthermia, or thermotherapy) is a type of medical treatment in which body tissue is exposed to temperatures above body temperature, in the region of 40–45 °C (104–113 °F). Hyperthermia is usually applied as an adjuvant to radiotherapy or chemotherapy, to which it works as a sensitizer, in an effort to treat cancer.
BMC Nursing is an open access peer-reviewed nursing journal published by BioMed Central covering all aspects of nursing research, training, education, and practice.. Publishers of Nursing journals have traditionally been slow to move to online and open access publishing, meaning BMC Nursing's launch in 2002 has made it one of the most widely known open access journals in the field.
Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a type of hyperthermia therapy used in combination with surgery in the treatment of advanced abdominal cancers. [1] In this procedure, warmed anti-cancer medications are infused and circulated in the peritoneal cavity (abdomen) for a short period of time.
