An overview of cancer thermal therapy technology based on different types of antenna exposure

Cancer thermal therapy is a treatment that uses heat generated using Electromagnetic (EM) fields. This treatment, significantly increase the effectiveness of radiotherapy or chemotherapy treatment towards cancerous tissue or cell. The main goal of this paper is to provide an overview of previous and...
