An Antenna with an Embedded EBG Structure for Non Invasive Hyperthermia Cancer Treatment
This paper describes the development on a microstrip antenna that is built with an electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure integrated within the antenna. The antenna, termed EBG-microstrip (EBG-M) antenna is purposely built for use in a non-invasive hyperthermia cancer treatment. The EBG-M was...

| description | This paper describes the development on a
microstrip antenna that is built with an electromagnetic band gap
(EBG) structure integrated within the antenna. The antenna, termed
EBG-microstrip (EBG-M) antenna is purposely built for use in a
non-invasive hyperthermia cancer treatment. The EBG-M was built
with the aim to improve penetration depth and reduce unwanted
hot-spots which may damage surrounding healthy tissues during
treatment procedures. In addition, this paper provides an overview
of a few salient characteristic of an EBG structure which enables
the reduction of the hot-spots. Finally, the results of a simulation
using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) that show a few of
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) distribution of the proposed EBGM
antenna are provided. These preliminary results indicate that an
EBG-M antenna have an ability to offer penetration depth with
minimize unwanted hot spots which are not required for noninvasive
hyperthermia cancer treatment. |
