Analysis of Coil Configurations for a Contactless Thermal Tumor Ablation With Implanted Devices

In the wide field of tumor treatment, thermal ablation procedures are very promising. Alternating magnetic fields are used to transfer the energy from outside the patient to the tumor area located anywhere in the body. This energy is converted to heat by implanted devices located in the tumor area. In this paper, the spatial distribution of the magnetic field of different circular coil configurati...
