We believe the hyperthermia is an effective adjunct to current modes of cancer therapy and warrants further study. The method described is safe and effective in achieving controlled total body hyperthermia. Monitoring techniques and life support measure are discussed. Limits of tolerance in humans are defined in this series as 41.8 C for 5 hr and 42 C (108F) for 2 hr, with the heart and liver as the limiting organs.
我们认为热疗是当前癌症治疗模式的一种有效辅助手段，值得进一步研究。所描述的方法在实现可控的全身热疗方面是安全有效的。文中讨论了监测技术和生命支持措施。在本系列研究中，人体的耐受极限被定义为41.8摄氏度持续5小时和42摄氏度（108华氏度）持续2小时，心脏和肝脏为极限器官。
