Evaluation of Simulated Radiofrequency Heating Procedures.
Abstract
A method for simulating radiofrequency radiation (RFR) heating at 1.2 GHz E-field oriented in the rat using warm moist (90% relative humidity) air is presented. The method can adequately simulate the overall linear rate of internal heating in the rate and the peak temperature excursion but fails to simulate the initial rapid rate of temperature rise due to RFR. Even with this shortcoming it appears that this moist heat simulation is superior to previous hot air simulations. (Author)
