Abstract :
In recent years, various types of medical applications of microwaves have widely been investigated and reported. In this paper, we proposed a novel coagulation device which can be used to heat up by the microwave energy and cut biological tissue by the loaded cutting blade for medical application. In addition, temperature distribution at 2.45 GHz is evaluated by FDTD method.
