| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The hyperthermia, which heats cancer tissue around 43℃, is an effective therapeutic technique that is used with radiotherapy or with carcinostatic. However, it is necessary to use thermocouple or an optical fiber type thermometer to confirm a heating effect. We have already proposed the noninvasive thermometry method paying attention to the characteristics of the electrical field of the TM mode formed between reentrant electrodes, and the temperature dependence of the dielectrics.
In this paper, to improve positioning accuracy of a reconstructed image of the temperature change inside a target body, the reconstruction parameters were simulated by numerical analysis. As a result, it was shown that the image of the temperature change inside a body is reconstructed more accurate by using the amplitude information instead of the phase information of the electromagnetic field distribution.
