摘要
Microwave ablation (MWA) is based on localized heating of biological tissues, enabled by an electric field. Antennas for ablation are commonly designed in a forward approach to generate a temperature profile specific to the design. The concept of an inversely-designed MWA antenna, consisting of printed dipoles, is presented herein. This design can be configured to synthesize a desired target temperature profile by controlling and optimizing its current distribution, as demonstrated by simulations. This concept provides the functionality of a phased array on the tip of an interstitial device. Published by AIP Publishing.
