In recent years, technological improvements towards a better concentration of heat to the desired target region have been achieved. These include a rather sophisticated integrated software environment for therapy planning and a new hyperthermia applicator. In a next step, a detailed closed loop monitoring of the actual treatment is to be developed. For this purpose the hyperthermia applicator is combined with an MRI system, which will allow to check the positioning of the patients and to measure individual blood perfusion as well as the 3D temperature distribution. The measurements will then be employed for an on-line control of the whole treatment. In this intended setting, new fast feedback control algorithms will come into play.}, language = {en} } @misc{DeuflhardHegeSedlmayred, author = {Deuflhard, Peter and Hege, Hans-Christian and Sedlmayr(ed.), E.}, title = {Scientific Computing in der Theoretischen Physik.

In order to permit a patient--specific treatment planning, a special software system ({\sf\small HyperPlan}) has been developed. \noindent A mathematical model of the clinical system ({\it radio frequency applicator with 8 antennas, water bolus, individual patient body}) involves Maxwell's equations in inhomogeneous media and a so--called bio--heat transfer PDE describing the temperature distribution in the human body. The electromagnetic field and the thermal phenomena need to be computed at a speed suitable for the clinical environment. An individual geometric patient model is generated as a quite complicated tetrahedral ``coarse'' grid (several thousands of nodes). Both Maxwell's equations and the bio--heat transfer equation are solved on that 3D--grid by means of {\em adaptive} multilevel finite element methods, which automatically refine the grid where necessary in view of the required accuracy. Finally optimal antenna parameters for the applicator are determined . \noindent All steps of the planning process are supported by powerful visualization methods. Medical images, contours, grids, simulated electromagnetic fields and temperature distributions can be displayed in combination. A number of new algorithms and techniques had to be developed and implemented. Special emphasis has been put on advanced 3D interaction methods and user interface issues.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BeckDeuflhardHegeetal.1997, author = {Beck, Rudolf and Deuflhard, Peter and Hege, Hans-Christian and Seebass, Martin and Stalling, Detlev}, title = {Numerical Algorithms and Visualization in Medical Treament Planning}, series = {Visualization and Mathematics}, booktitle = {Visualization and Mathematics}, editor = {Hege, Hans-Christian and Polthier, Konrad}, publisher = {Springer-Verlag}, pages = {303 -- 328}, year = {1997}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BeckHegeSeebassetal.1996, author = {Beck, Rudolf and Hege, Hans-Christian and Seebass, Martin and Wust, Peter and Deuflhard, Peter and Felix, Roland}, title = {Adaptive finite element codes for numerical calculations in hyperthermia treatment planning}, series = {Proc. of the 7th Int.
