The tumor tissues became more reactive to 13.56 MHz RF hyperthermia as i.v. injection of iron-dextran. a The repeated i.v. injection of iron-dextran to cancer-bearing mice boosted temperature elevation greater in a local 13.56 MHz RF hyperthermia as iron ion concentration was increased by repeated injections. b The repeated i.v. injection of iron-dextran boosted temperature elevation in a whole-body 13.56 MHz RF hyperthermia as iron ion accumulated. The values represent the mean ± SD (n = 6). A paired Student’s t-test was used for the statistical analysis; *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001
