* Please carefully monitor the patient, and do not exceed their personal
tolerance. The patient must not feel any burning or too much hotness.
** Always be sure that the electrode bolus is pressed firmly against the patient
on the largest available surface to ensure tuning.
*** Take extra care on the testes.
**** Electrodes could be variable, depending on the area of the actual
tumor.
