A flexible three-paths catheter provided with a balloon carries a
sealingly sheathed radiofrequency radiating antenna, together with the
shielded power supply cable and with some thermocouples, within a plastic
lining surrounded by a flow of liquid; a second path carries the power
supply cables of some outer thermocouples, flooded by the reverse liquid
flow, while the third path allows a fluid to flow through for inflating
the balloon.Introduction of the catheter into a hollow organ makes it
possible to perform hyperthermal therapy of tumors by means of radiation.
