Hyperthermia

As per available reports about 100 journals, 162 Conferences, 30 workshops are presently dedicated exclusively to hyperthermia and about 366282 articles are being published on the current trends in hyperthermia. In terms of research annually, USA, India, Japan, Brazil and Canada are some of the leading countries where maximum studies related to hyperthermia  are being carried out. As reported in Oncothermia – Nano-Heating Paradigm, Hyperthermia in oncology is a typical scientific see-saw. Despite its privilege as the very first oncological therapy in human medicine, it is not accepted in the clinical practice as a daily routine. Its development was an almost unbroken success-story at the start when the effects were also directly connected to various religious beliefs, venerating the Sun and the radiated heat/fire as overall force in nature. The popular medicine of heat has been introduced to the households, and even today it is one of the most frequently applied home-cure for various diseases. However, the medical profession needs more efficacy and explanations too. Soon, it was realized in the middle ages that there are some shortcomings of hyperthermia in oncology, which were believed to be the consequence of the technological limits, such as the lack of deep-heating technology and proper safety control. More and more doubts were formulated and the method was rejected among the professionals until the discovery of electromagnetic heat-delivery. These kind of technical solutions were promising; they were used to deliver deep and accurately focused energy to fulfill the requirements of the classical thoughts about the healing values of high temperatures. A funny situation occurred: on the basis of the ancient knowledge, a relatively new and powerful technology, the “modern in time” electromagnetic heating started to be applied believing the accurate heat delivery can heal patients. There are numerous results showing the significant effects of this classical hyperthermia approach in oncology. Then, the basic explanation was the larger heat-sensibility of the cancer than that of the healthy tissue. The Journal of Cancer Science & Therapy is an academic journal – hosted by OMICS International – a pioneer in open access publishing–and is listed among the top 10 journals in hyperthermia. Each year research scientists have noticed a rise in the number of congresses being held in this field. The Journal of Cancer Science & Therapy provides a unique platform to researchers and scientist to explore the advanced and latest research developments in the field of hyperthermia, thus bridging the gap between researchers and young scientists. OMICS International – a pioneer in organizing international conferences The scientific sessions of the Cancer Science conferences housing the current research in cancer research. Tumor science will host presentations related to Tumor Microenvironment, communication, and Tumor progression. Cancer therapeutics will focus on translating cancer biology research into novel oncology treatments. Cancer imaging, Cancer cell biology session revolves around molecular basis of cancer and treatments for this devastating disease Drug discovery and development, Molecular cancer biology, and Transcriptomics and more.
