Improved patient-specific hyperthermia planning based on parametrized electromagnetic and thermal models for the SIGMA-30 applicator

Improved patient-specific hyperthermia planning based on parametrized electromagnetic and thermal models for the SIGMA-30 applicator

Objective To create an improved planning method for pediatric regional hyperthermia (RHT) using the SIGMA-30 applicator (SIGMA-30). Materials and Methods An electromagnetic model of SIGMA-30 was generated for use with the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Applying special MATLAB-based alg...
