Abstract: | Single loop surface coil, often used in MR studies, was evaluated for its performance as an inductive hyperthermic applicator. The heat deposition pattern produced by the surface coil at 84 MHz and 34 MHz was mapped in muscle-mimicking agar phantoms. Temperatures were measured simultaneously at 64 points using multiple-junction thermocouples. |
