Abstract

Hyperthermia is in the interest of both, clinical and research oncologists, because of its properties to directly produce permanent damages of the treated tumors and to elicit important immunological responses against cancer cells by changing their immunogenicity. Microwave ablation (MWA) is used in the treatment of primary and secondary tumors of the liver. The purpose of this research is to study the fundamental physical mechanisms of microwave ablation of liver tissue and to utilize the results to improve microwave tumor ablation systems. In this research it has been discussed how advanced electromagnetic numerical techniques can be utilized to design the antennas for realistic human body environment. Different mathematical methods may be employed for the computation of power distributions in biological structures irradiated by a source of electromagnetic radiation.
