Microwave Exposure System on Cell Solution for Alzheimer's Disease Treatment

A new treatment modality for Alzheimer's disease using microwaves is proposed and under extensive investigation to understand the curing mechanism. This preliminary study is to design a rectangular exposure waveguide, containing neuron solution in Petri dishes exposed to traveling microwave at 2.45GHz. The simulated results with and without Petri dishes and cell solution have shown little reflection and good impedance match being achieved through tuning stubs. The mean SAR values in each Petri dish in two different set-ups have been calculated to provide a guidance in the long time exposure studies
