predominance

・Research toward precise cancer ablation by using robot technology 
・Development of sensing method and estimation method for physical quantity related as ablation during operation

background

・Ablation support to hyperthermia (RFA; Radio frequency ablation) for cancer
・Non-ablation of cancer has been reported
・Heat energy to cancer is absorbed by blood flow

summary
