Systems, methods and computer-accessible mediums for determining a specific absorption rate (SAR) of a radio frequency (RF) radiation on an object(s) can be provided, which can, for example hardware arrangement configured to receive thermal information for a portion(s) of the at least one object, and determine the SAR based on the thermal information.

System, method and computer-accessible medium for determining specific absorption rate obtained based on magnetic resonance imaging and temperature property measurements

The present disclosure relates to methods and systems that provide heat, via at least Photon-Electron resonance, also known as excitation, of at least a particle utilized, at least in part, to initiate and/or drive at least one catalytic chemical reaction. In some implementations, the particles are structures or metallic structures, such as nanostructures. The one or more metallic structures are heated at least as a result of interaction of incident electromagnetic radiation, having particular frequencies and/or frequency ranges, with delocalized surface electrons of the one or more particles. This provides a control of catalytic chemical reactions, via spatial and temporal control of generated heat, on the scale of nanometers as well as a method by which catalytic chemical reaction temperatures are provided.

Electromagnetic control of chemical catalysis

A method of performing a medical procedure on target tissue within the body includes immobilizing the target tissue with an immobilization device, positioning an insertion tool (e.g., a needle, a needle and marker wire, a needle gun, etc.) to be inserted into the target tissue on the immobilization device based on at least one reading of the target tissue, and inserting the insertion tool into the target tissue. An immobilization device for performing methods includes a frame assembly, a tissue immobilization assembly coupled to the frame assembly, the tissue immobilization assembly including a structure adapted to immobilize tissue, and a needle assembly releasably connectable to the frame assembly. The needle assembly includes a needle capable of being inserted into the immobilized tissue.

Methods and apparatus for performing procedures on target locations in the body

A method for forming a film of material using chemical vapor deposition. The method includes providing a substrate comprising a pattern of at least one metallic nanostructure, which is made of a selected material. The method includes determining a plasmon resonant frequency of the selected material of the nanostructure and exciting a portion of the selected material using an electromagnetic source having a predetermined frequency at the plasmon resonant frequency to cause an increase in thermal energy of the selected material. The method includes applying one or more chemical precursors overlying the substrate including the selected material excited at the plasmon resonant frequency and causing selective deposition of a film overlying at least the portion of the selected material.
