  • Abstract
    A cylinder of muscle tissue may be heated at depth by applying an electric field to a circumferential gap in a metallic cylinder surrounding the tissue. Experiments at 150 MHz on a 10-cm-diameter cylinder verify the theoretical calculations and show a well-defined focus on the axis.
