Hyperthermia (excess heats) refers to the use of high temperatures to treat cancer. When used to treat tumors locally, high temperatures can destroy cancer cells and even the blood vessels the supply vital nutrients to these cells. One way to administering heat to specific tumors involves the use of nanoparticles. The use of nanoparticle technology in conjunction
