Hydrogel and scalp/skin conductivities impact dose from tumor treating fields

TTFields delivery can be modulated by the conductivity of hydrogel and scalp/skin at the transducer-scalp or transducer-skin interface. Optimizing this aspect of TTFields delivery may increase tumor control while minimizing toxicity at the scalp or skin.
