Paper Abstract
In 198k we developed a method of hyperthermia using Nd:YAG laser (laser thermia)
a system for transmitting continuous low power energy (2 W) through an artificial
sapphire interstitial probe for local hyperthermia (43-0.5°C). Our experimental and
clinical evidence indicated that this method is safe and effective. The process of
tumor destruction induced by laser thermia is, however, poorly understood.
We performed in vivo histopathological studies and obtained the following
results;
1) At the tissue level, the initial change after laser thermia was the damage of
tumor feeding vessels.
2) At the cell level, immediately after laser thermia the mitochondria in the intracellular
organella were completely destroyed.
