Study of Water Bolus Effect on SAR Penetration Depth and Effective Field Size for Local Hyperthermia
Water bolus is used in microwave hyperthermia of cancer
treatment to control the body surface temperature. In this paper
the effect of water bolus on SAR distribution is investigated in the
muscle layer of a three layered tissue...
Optimization of Laser Power for Laser-Induced Hyperthermia in the Presence of Nanoparticles using MATLAB and COMSOL Multiphysics
Hyperthermia is a process that involves increasing the temperature of the tumor region, usually up to 43 °C, with the aim of killing cancerous cells. To address the problem of unwanted thermal damage to the healthy tissue around the tumor, the use...
Interference alignment using variational mean field annealing
Program
Pipelined implementation of a Hessenberg-based filter structure
Investigation of thermal distribution for pulsed laser radiation in cancer treatment with nanoparticle-mediated hyperthermia
In this paper, we have simulated the efficacy of gold/gold sulfide (GGS) nanoshells in NIR laser hyperthermia to achieve effective targeting for tumor photothermal therapy. The problem statement takes into account the heat transfer with the blood...
Induction of Localized Hyperthermia by Millisecond Laser Pulses in the Presence of Gold-Gold Sulphide Nanoparticles in a Phantom
Introduction
Application of near-infrared absorbing nanostructures can induce hyperthermia, in addition to providing more efficient photothermal effects. Gold-gold sulfide (GGS) is considered as one of these nanostructures. This study...
Protective effects of M8‑B, a TRPM8 antagonist, on febrile‑ and pentylenetetrazol‑induced seizures
Epilepsy is a life‑threatening disorder that is marked by recurrent seizures. Febrile seizure is a common neurological disorder observed in neonates. In many cases, reducing body temperature can prevent febrile ...
Model Predictive Control of the Thermal Dose In Hyperthermia and Temperature Estimation with Kalman Filter
A Model predictive control of the thermal dose in hyperthermia has been applied, using Pennes bio heat transfer function which is a diffusion equation as a plant model. First the dynamic model is derived from direct discretization of the Pennes...
