Abstract

:This paper describes experimental results of a new heating method for treating osteoarthritis in the knee using a resonant cavity applicator. In the previous study, we proposed a new heating method using a resonant cavity applicator for thermotherapy of osteoarthritis,and discussed the calculated temperature distributions using 3D FEM. From these estimated results, it was found that the proposed heating method is useful for treating osteoarthritis in the knee. In paper,the thermal properties of the proposed method are discussed with experimental results using the prototype applicator with several types of agar phantoms. And the experimental results of the resonant cavity applicator were compared with that of the microwave diathermy system,which is used in Furthermore, in order to resemble real-life conditions, a cow knee was used in the heating experiment. First, experimental results of a cylindrical agar phantom with the proposed method and the microwave diathermy system are discussed. Second, temperature distributions of an agar phantom shaped like a human leg using both methods are presented. Third,the experimental result using the cow knee is discussed. From the experimental results,it is found that the proposed heating method using the resonant cavity applicator is effective for treating osteoarthritis in the knee.
用于骨关节炎治疗的谐振腔涂抹器的加热性能
本文介绍了一种使用谐振腔式加热器治疗膝关节骨关节炎的新方法的实验结果。在之前的研究中,我们提出了一种使用谐振腔施加器进行骨关节炎热疗的新加热方法,并讨论了使用三维有限元法计算的温度分布。从这些估计的结果中,发现所提出的加热方法对治疗膝关节骨关节炎是有用的。本文讨论了该方法的热性能,并结合实验结果,利用原型涂布器对几种类型的琼脂幻影进行了实验。并将谐振腔加热器的实验结果与微波透热系统的实验结果进行了比较。此外,为了模拟实际情况,加热实验采用了牛膝。首先,讨论了用该方法和微波透热系统对圆柱形琼脂体的实验结果。其次,用这两种方法给出了人腿形状的琼脂模体的温度分布。第三,讨论了利用牛膝的实验结果。实验结果表明,所提出的谐振腔加热方法对治疗膝关节骨关节炎是有效的。
