Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Consideration is given to the interaction of plane and cylindrical electromagnetic waves with layered cylindrical biotissue. Space distributions of the power density of heat loss are calculated and analyzed. The influence of biotissue inhomogeneities (arteries, veins) on electromagnetic heating is evaluated. The results reported can be used for hyperthermia of biological objects in oncology.
