THE EFFECT OF LOW INTENSITY AND MEDIUM FREQUENCY ELECTRIC FIELDS ON THE NEUTROPHIL TO LYMPHOCYTE RATIO IN THE BLOOD OF RAT BRAIN TISSUE IN VIVO FROM A SAFETY ASPECT

Background: One of the most frequently found primary brain tumors in the adult population isglioblastoma. The Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) in brain tumors shows that higher NLRpredicts poorer outcomes. The Electro Capacitive Cancer Treatment (ECCT) has demonstratedhigher efficacy in vitro and in vivo clinically, while safety aspects have not been observed and requirefurther research. This study aims to analyze the effect of ECCT using low intensity electric fields atmedium frequency on NLR in the blood of rat brain tissue in vivo from a safety aspect.
