Computational FEM Model,<i> Phantom</i> and<i> Ex Vivo</i> Swine Breast Validation of an Optimized Double-Slot Microcoaxial Antenna Designed for Minimally Invasive Breast Tumor Ablation: Theoretical and Experimental Comparison of Temperature, Size of Lesion, and SWR, Preliminary Data

<div>Molds used to fabricate breast and tumor phantoms. The size of the breast mold was the mean value of the measurements of ten 34B brassiere size volunteer women. The size for the cancer tissue mold corresponded to a tumor that had gone from T1 to T2.</div>
