What is hypothermia? ; Hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature of less than 95°F (35°C). Hypothermia occurs when the body's temperature regulation is overwhelmed by a cold environment. The body’s normal core temperature is 36.5-37.5°C (97.5-99.5°F). Core body temperature refers to the temperature of the body’s internal organs, like the heart, liver, brain, and blood. Core body temperature is most commonly measured by a rectal thermometer. Continuous measurement can also occur in the hospital with a rectal probe, or a thermomet ...
High temperatures can be used to destroy tumor cells, a cancer treatment known as hyperthermic oncology. Although the idea behind this treatment method has been around for some time, it wasn’t until recently that new tools and more precise delivery of heat has allowed hyperthermia to be used for cancer treatment. As hyperthermic oncology studies continue, simulation has proven a valuable tool for achieving a deeper understanding of how to deliver heat to tumors while limiting damage to healthy...
