The hyperthermia system BSD 2000 with the ring applicator Sigma 60 utilizes the principle of a phase controlled group radiation source. The accuracy of the phase relationship between the four receiving HF signals is crucial for the position of the electric field inside the applicator. Therefore, essential significance falls to the phase control of the system. An automatic phase measuring technique has been developed to register immediately the phase position of the four channels of the BSD 2000 with respect to a reference signal. The system improves the insurance of the technical safeguarding. In the first part of this work, the technical realization of the measurement system is described and first measurements with the system are given. In the second part, results with respect to the quality assurance of the BSD 2000 system are presented.
