(ISSN 1464-5157)
Aims and scope
The International Journal of Hyperthermia publishes peer reviewed research and clinical studies on thermal energy-based disease treatments. It is the official journal of the Society for Thermal Medicine, the European Society for Hyperthermic Oncology, and the Japanese Society for Thermal Medicine.
The journal publishes research, perspectives, and letters related to the clinical studies, biological studies, and physics/engineering studies of therapeutic thermal therapies. The journal covers the following topics:
Clinical studies describing whole, regional or local treatment in humans or other animals covering the application of therapeutic thermal energy treatment alone or in combination with other clinical modalities
Clinical outcomes on the physiological effects of heat or cold stress
Clinical testing of methods related to thermal technologies
Biological studies incorporating biochemical, anatomical or physiological studies of a basic or preclinical nature using basic biochemical, cell, animal, or computational models
Research covering thermal tolerance, stress or shock, response and injury, immunological and physiological effects, toxicity and drug delivery, gene therapy, nanotechnology and nanomedicine
The development of technologies and strategies for energy delivery and control, with an end goal to effect specific biologic responses leading to therapeutic outcomes
Modalities and technology of therapy delivery, imaging, temperature management, and treatment monitoring and verification
Advances in energy systems to produce tissue heating or cooling, or temperature monitoring and validation, or to control tissue temperature regulation
Methods of measuring and modelling hypothermia and the thermal therapies and related technologies and systems
The International Journal of Hyperthermia accepts original articles, reviews, and letters to the editor.
The journal operates a single-blind peer review policy. All articles will be made freely and permanently available online through gold open access publication.
