ElectroMagnetic Heating of Lung Tumors

The objective of this paper is to provide an overview of the effect of electromagnetic on lung tumors using the required hardware and software to perform and ensure reliable procedures capable of planning an optimum treatment for deep regional hyperthermia in lung tumors. Temperature distributions of a three-dimensional complex human phantom models constructed to examine the heating properties of the hyperthermia sys-tem (BSD 2000) Pyrexar Medical company, (Plane Wave) and invasively inserted Tube. The implementation of these models executed using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and heating method Pennes Bio Heat equation are described. The results shows that relatively high temperatures can be achieved in located tumors with a side effect to nearby organs, from these results, it was found that the human phantom model composed of complex 318 entities provided by ZMT Zurich MedTech AG (ZMT) company useful to test the heating properties method, the heating method was also effective to invasively inserted Tube heating lung tumors with minimum nearby tissue damage.
