Abstract
Lung cancer or pulmonary cancer is one of a dangerous cancer threatening human life since a long time ago. Even though, a conventional surgery is widely accepted as a gold standard for this cancer treatment, however a new medical maneuver still be investigated to perform with this disease. In this paper, we trail a simulation of thermal ablation by using microwave energy at 2.45GHz, 30 Watts for 10 seconds with an opened-ring coaxial applicator in a simple lung tissue model. An air tracheal also placed in this model in order to compare for a thermal distribution. Although, this model is quite differing from a porous material, but our simulation results of temperature distribution and destructive area at 60 □C guide us some useful information for a real ex vivo with swine tissue in the near future work.
