Flowchart depicting the hyperthermia treatment planning process, including SAR and temperature optimization, delivery, and online adaptive optimization. In addition, the hyperthermia and radiation therapy treatment plans are integrated in a joint platform using biological modeling with temperature-dependent linear-quadratic parameters α and β. RT, radiotherapy; HTP, hyperthermia treatment planning; HTRT, thermoradiotherapy; SAR, specific absorption rate. The images of HTP, RT, and HTRT plans have been modified and reproduced with permissions from Kok et al. (261) and van Leeuwen et al. (262).
