We are trying to meet with a UCSF radiation oncologist. Kaiser does not offer hyperthermia, but UCSF does. Has anyone had this? Did it help make other treatments more efficacious?

He cannot have full course of radiation because of his childhood radiation for Hodgkins. We feel are options are narrowing.

 

Thank you.
