Abstract :
A pair of opposing magnetic fields can concentrate induced eddy currents in the vicinities of targeted lesions which should be heated. The present study is focused on the temperature-rise characteristics with blood flow under consideration of volume conductors which are exposed to a pair of opposing time-varying magnetic fields at 13.56MHz. We observed heat transport by a simulated blood flow in temperature-rise characteristics.
