Finite Element Analysis of Microwave Tumor Ablation Based on Open-Source Software Components
Mathematics, 2023 Microwave ablation is a procedure for treating various types of cancers during which a small needle-like probe is inserted inside the tumor, which delivers microwave energy, causes tissue heating, and effectively produces necrosis of the tumor tissue ...

CT-guided microwave ablation of the nonsurgical aspergilloma
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2023 Background: Aspergillosis is a fungal infection that can lead to development of an aspergilloma, especially in patients with a history of cavitary lung disease. It is generally managed with antifungal therapy followed by surgical intervention. There are,

A Study of Microwave Ablation With Hollow Antenna
IEEE Access, 2022 Most microwave ablation antennas produce a non-spherical ablation zone. We propose a hollow microwave ablation antenna. In the hollow antenna, we use a hollow copper tube as the inner conductor.
