Abstract :
In this paper, we studied the new method for remedy of varicose vein in the leg that incidents electromagnetic wave from outside of the body by using antenna and removes the blood vessels by heating. In this study, we presented the treatment by using the differences of permittivity and electromagnetic waves are concentrically absorbed in the blood vessels and degrading the capability of blood vessels. Through a simulation, we confirmed the extent of the transmission and the absorption at specific frequencies by difference dielectric constant. Therefore we can concentrate more power into the blood at organizations under the skin by using electromagnetic waves. In addition, we presented the possibility through the rabbit experiment.
