Abstract(in English) This paper describes the developed supporting simulator system for effective hyperthermia treatments in a Virtual Reality (VR). Because needle applicators have a small heating area, it is not easy to precisely put a needle into a target point for medical doctors. Here, first, we proposed the developed supporting simulator system in a VR for effective hyperthermia treatments using a needle applicator. Second, we performed to put the needle applicator into a 3-D anatomical human head model avoiding cerebral blood vessels. Finally, from these results, it was concluded that the developed supporting simulator system is useful for performing effective hyperthermia treatments.
