| Abstract: | The development of a millimeter and submillimeter wave catheter for irradiation on living bodies using a gyrotron as the radiation power source is described. The GYROTRON FU-IV, optimized for such applications was used in the development. It was operated in both CW and pulsed regime at TE03 and TE32 modes with frequencies 302 GHz and 238 GHz respectively. Irradiation tests were made on thermal papers, beefs and liver of living rats. |
