In a random group of five patients undergoing thermotherapy with Thermex II (Direx Systems), the temperature in the region of the external sphincter was measured using a modified Thermex catheter. In all five patients the measured temperature exceeded 44.5 degrees C for more than half the duration of treatment. Further temperature mapping studies and studies on the assessment of sphincter function after Thermex II thermotherapy are in progress.
在一组随机选取的五名接受Thermex II(Direx系统公司)热疗的患者中,使用改良的Thermex导管测量外括约肌区域的温度。在所有五名患者中,测量到的温度在超过一半的治疗时间内超过了44.5摄氏度。关于Thermex II热疗后的进一步温度测绘研究以及括约肌功能评估研究正在进行中。
