[Preliminary results for a 434 MHz microwave hyperthermia applicator (author's transl)].
Laboratory tests on inert gel and gel of different compositions were conducted to determine the distribution of isothermal temperature zones. The repartition in depth and along a perpendicular plane to the applicator axis was studied as a function of different parameters: the skin cooling water temperature of the applicator, the incident microwave power, the application time, the gel composition and the antenna position. Experimental results were compared to theoretical values corresponding to a plane microwave penetrating into a tissue-equivalent medium. To take into account in vivo temperature regulation phenomena, the same measurements were made in vivo in pigs and humans and compared to in vitro results.
