A helical microwave antenna has been designed to improve heat deposition by interstitial applicators used for clinical hyperthermia. Iso-specific-absorption-rate (SAR) curves of the helical antenna as well as a conventional monopole antenna were measured and compared in both muscle and brain tissue phantoms. The heating pattern of the helical antenna is more uniform along the length of the antenna which has important implications for multiarray implant configurations.
一种螺旋微波天线已被设计出来，以改善用于临床热疗的组织间施源器的热沉积。在肌肉和脑组织模型中测量并比较了螺旋天线以及传统单极天线的等比吸收率（SAR）曲线。螺旋天线的加热模式在天线长度方向上更均匀，这对多阵列植入配置具有重要意义。
