Abstract:<p>Microwave hyperthermia (MH) requires the effective calibration of the antenna excitations for selective focusing of the microwave energy to the target region with a nominal effect on the surrounding tissue. To this end, many different antenna calibration methods such as optimization techniques and lookup tables have been proposed in the literature. These optimization procedures, however, do not consider the whole nature of the electric field, which is a complex vector field, instead it is simplified t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
