Thermal field created by an irradiator with a slot capacitance studied on tissue-equivalent phantoms

Experiments were carried out on phantoms imitating muscular and fatty tissues which were exposed to a single action of microwave hyperthermia in microwave set "Volna-2" (460 MHz installation with a modified antenna. The temperature in the phantoms was measured by copper-constant thermocouples in periods of automatic switching off the microwave power. Temperature distribution in the phantoms was found to depend on the depth, exposure time and power.
