A Hyperthermia Machine is a medical device that is used to treat cancer by delivering localized heat to the affected area. This heat helps to kill cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. Hyperthermia machines are used in conjunction with other treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The machine works by using a combination of microwaves, radiofrequency energy, and ultrasound to heat the affected area.
Hyperthermia machines come in a range of sizes and prices. Smaller machines are typically used in outpatient settings and can cost anywhere from $40,000 to $100,000. Larger machines that are used in hospitals and clinics can cost up to $500,000. The cost of a hyperthermia machine will depend on the size, features, and manufacturer. Some of the leading manufacturers of hyperthermia machines include Philips, BSD Medical, and Oncotherm.
