Slot antenna for microwave ablation

For the first time, we report a novel design for a coaxial antenna with greatly increased possibility of conformal treatment, a coaxial multi-slot antenna with multiple, preoperative, adjustable, slots for conformal microwave ablation. Theoretical simulations revealed that our coaxial multi-slot antenna could greatly decrease over-treatment compared with the conventional coaxial-slot antenna. Additionally, the coaxial-slot antenna with ten slots generates the smallest over-treatment region ...

An axisymmetric electromagnetic model of the double slot choked antenna used for hepatic microwave ablation (MWA). (a) FEM model. (b) Logarithmic SAR distribution. Results were normalized using the maximum SAR obtained.

Finally, after a brief overview of thermal therapy and microwave heating, coaxial-slot antennas and array applicators composed of several coaxial-slot antennas for minimally invasive microwave thermal therapies are introduced.

Abstract Recently, Microwave (MW) ablation emerged as a new technology with potential to eliminate the problems associated with RF ablation. Microwave coagulation therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma For ablation of larger tumors, two to three microwave antenna needles can be used at the same time to produce maximum coagulation area. [ 43] Simultaneous use of two antenna needles could not be simply regarded as a linear superposition of … Microsoft Word - Hernández_Tonmj An antenna emits minimal injury to normal tissues [1]. By killing cancer cells microwave radiation into the tissue; this results in excitation and damaging proteins and structures within cells [2], hyper-and oscillation of polar molecules … Coaxial Slot Antenna Design for Microwave Hyperthermia using
