Bicher Cancer Institute (formerly Valley Cancer Institute) is one of the USA's largest Hyperthermic research and clinic treatment centers. Since its foundation in 1984 by Dr. Haim Bicher, BCI has been committed to the research, development, and clinical use of Hyperthermia, a natural, less toxic cancerocidal modality, to improve cancer treatment results while decreasing side effects of conventional therapies.
