Abstract Previous investigations have shown
that absorptions of microwave energy in biological bodies depend in part, on
the size and shape of the biological bodies. Calculations of dose rate
distributions in regularly-shaped biological tissues have been reported. In
this investigation, dose distributions are calculated for a human thigh
simulated by a dielectric cylinder with irregular cross section. Method of
Moments is used in the investigation. The results indicate possibility of
using method of moments to calculate dose distribution in a two-dimensional
irregularly shaped biological body. It is concluded that additional research
is needed to determine dose rate distribution in three-dimensional
irregularly-shaped biological bodies. |
