Early detection of brain disease is, therefore, of great significance in reducing the risks to life and health. Thermoacoustic imaging has emerged as a promising technique for detecting brain disease, which meets the requirements of high penetration depth and real-time imaging in transcranial imaging. However, the acoustic characteristics of the skull can significantly impact the propagation of thermoacoustic signals, leading to attenuation and apparent phase difference, resulting in poor quality of reconstructed image and location deviation of symptom points. In this study, a skull phase compensated method combined full waveform inversion for transcranial thermoacoustic imaging is proposed. The adaptive positioning of skull is realized firstly by improving the W-AIC algorithm in thermoacoustic imaging to solve the phase difference problem and FWI technology is applied for reconstructing the intracranial SoS distribution. Numerical simulation of a human brain model and actual human skull experiments further verify the feasibility of this method in improving the quality of thermoacoustic images, thereby providing a reliable theoretical basis for the clinical application of transcranial thermoacoustic imaging.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"7 4","pages":"313-319"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75290361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sensor is a tuned loop resonator operating in the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band at 2.465 GHz, providing a localized high-intensity electric field that penetrates into tissues with sufficient spatial and spectral resolutions. The loop resonator with a radius of 5.4 mm was tuned by a concentric metal pad to the desired resonant frequency with a sufficiently high quality factor of 98.7 and a reflection coefficient of \u0000<inline-formula><tex-math>$-$</tex-math></inline-formula>\u000063.98 dB. The sensor is based on the detection of electromagnetic resonance change and sequential frequency shift that is susceptible to the dielectric property difference between cancerous and benign tissues. Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) and Seborrheic Keratosis (SK), the most commonly found malignant and benign skin lesions with close visual similarities, were selected to demonstrate the sensing concept. Tissue-mimicking materials were fabricated to have similar dielectric properties to those of healthy skin, SK, and BCC tissues in the literature. Simulations and measurements were conducted. Significant frequency shifts of 759 MHz and 415 MHz were observed between BCC and SK phantoms in simulations and measurements, respectively, when the size of the tumor phantom was a cuboid of 12 mm × 12 mm × 4 mm underneath and among healthy skin. Simulations were conducted for different cuboid side lengths from 2 to 16 mm while the thickness remained at 4 mm. Malignant lesions could be distinguished with a cuboid side length as small as 2 mm. Corresponding measurements for cuboid side lengths of 6, 8, 10, and 12 mm were conducted and matched the trend well with the simulation results. The promising results in simulations and measurements validate the sensing principle, showing great potential for skin cancer detection in a noninvasive, efficient, and lower-cost way.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"7 4","pages":"320-327"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79343105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Magnetopriming is a pre-sowing seed treatment with magnetic field that appears as a promising method to improve seed performances. This paper presents a cost-efficient design and optimization of an exposure system for magnetopriming treatments. The proposed static magnetic field applicator is modelled and designed with the aid of commercial software. The prototype is realized and tested based on the best set of geometry parameters for optimum performance, in terms of strength and high homogeneity of the magnetic flux density in the Region of Interest. Both analytical and measurement results are found to be in good agreement with the simulated results. The system is low cost, environmentally friendly and easy to operate. It allows seed treatments at different strengths with high homogeneity within the samples. In this way, the treatments can be carried out following good practice requirements strongly recommended for a high quality bioelectromagnetic research to assure reliability and reproducibility of the experiments.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"7 3","pages":"245-250"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel7/7397573/10226431/10109786.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50291932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this work is to provide a proof of concept for radar-based detection of breast tumors in K-band using the temperature-dependent permittivity of the tissue for contrast enhancement. The innovation of this work is given by i) investigating higher microwave frequencies for breast cancer diagnostics and improved resolution; ii) exploiting variations in tissue temperature as a non-invasive approach for contrast-induced radar imaging eliminating the need for contrast agents such as nanoparticles; iii) using a well-defined setup with the breast compressed similar to mammography; iv) eliminating the need for coupling liquid through the usage of ultra-wideband bow-tie antennas operating from 16.55 to 40 GHz for a reflection coefficient lower than −10 dB; v) validating the experimental findings through numerical modelling. The experimental setup in this work consists of a single-pixel transmission setup with the antennas placed in a 3D printed container. Two different tissue mimicking phantoms have been studied that both model the temperature-dependent permittivity of biological tissue. The first phantom represents homogeneous fatty tissue properties and the second phantom simulates fatty tissue with a tumor inclusion. A uniform phantom warming is realized through a water bath combined with a continuous monitoring of the phantoms temperature.

The objective of this study is to mitigate thermal generation and accumulation while determining the electrophoretic mobility of charged molecules within annulus fibrosus cartilage tissue. By using electrical pulses as compared to direct current (DC), less total energy is input and more heat can dissipate in a given amount of time. Temperature measurements confirm that use of DC leads to higher rates of temperature change during electrophoresis, with Joule heating responsible for the thermal rise. The measured electrophoretic mobilities of two small, charged dye molecules are found to be similar among DC, square and sawtooth pulsed electrophoresis. One significant difference occurs between square and sawtooth pulses for the dye that interacts less with the cartilage tissue. Results herein suggest that accurate measurements with reduced temperature changes of thermally-sensitive tissues can be made using pulsed electrophoresis, which can lead to a better understanding of molecular transport under physiological conditions.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"7 3","pages":"210-215"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50291938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
