  • Abstract
    In order to improve the external applicators used for microwave thermotherapy controlled by microwave radiometry in medical applications, we propose specific annular planar applicators developed for the heating. The final goal of this study is the realization of a honeycomb network for the treatment of larger areas and greater volumes.
