Smart Microwave Thermal Ablation Applicators
2024 IEEE INC-USNC-URSI Radio Science Meeting (Joint with AP-S Symposium)Microwave thermal ablation is a therapeutic technique typically used to treat solid tumours by way of a high-power electromagnetic field emitted by a microwave antenna (often referred to as the applicator). In this contribution, the possibility of using the applicator to get information from the surrounding tissue is reported.

Microwave Ablation: Surgical Perspective
2005Thermal destruction by microwaves has been used effectively for many years for ablation of both small liver metastases and primary lesions. Microwaves produce effective ablation without islands of viable cells in a rapid and reproducible fashion. The microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum is well suited to such a role due to the efficient ...
