Method and system relating to hyperthermia
TL;DR: In this article, a method and system for selective heating of an object based on a model of said object is proposed, the method comprising the steps of: modeling of a wave front of a source, which wave front is propagated through the model object from a virtual antenna placed in the model of the specific region where heating is desired, simulating a radiated field and measuring the same using computer models of surrounding antenna system, time-reversing, transferring and synthesizing the signal in a real system, transmitting by a real antenna system the field in a time reversed order
Proceedings Article
Broadband microwave based diagnostics and treatment
TL;DR: An efficient 3D microwave tomography system based on wide band antennas and detailed modelling using the finite difference time domain methods is presented together with a microwave system design study and a novel microwave hyperthermia cancer treatment system.

Experimental evaluation of UWB applicator prototype for head and neck hyperthermia
TL;DR: The laboratory prototype of an UWB hyperthermia applicator is presented and tested for treatment of tumors in head and neck region and captured temperature images show the agreement between the planned and the measured focal spots and acceptable temperature increase in these areas.
Proceedings Article
Microwave based diagnostics and treatment
TL;DR: Microwave based diagnostics and treatment will be discussed with application to stroke diagnostics, 3-D microwave tomography with applications to breast cancer diagnosis and microwave hyperthermia with application with cancer treatment.
