Figure 10. Cross sections of the simulated SAR and temperature distributions with CFMA and waveguide applicators. In both cases, the water bath temperature was 42 °C and the absorbed power 200W in tissue and water bath. The colours red, yellow and green in the anatomy represent muscle, fat and bony tissue, respectively and tumour tissue is orange. The small black cross hair indicates the location of the cross sections.
