Development of Body-Tissue Temperature-Control Transducer
The aim of this study was to develop a transducer for non-invasive temperature measurement in deeper tissue layers during tissue cooling. Simulation of the temperature field distribution in human tissues and the transducer were done, and the influence of transducer structure and material properties...
