Abstract
The embodiments herein provide a method and system for generating heat at a target area of a patient's body for treatment of lesions, tumors, cancer cells, body pain and nerve pain. The heat generated inside a target tissue is distributed throughout the target area. The system and method provides a real time monitoring of the generated heat and the temperature of the tissue. The system comprises a radio frequency (RF) antenna/transducer for receiving the generated RF waves from the RF generator. A controller/optimizer is provided for controlling a frequency of the RF waves and a transmission timing of the RF waves. A RF absorber/distributor comprising a plurality of closed loop circuits is provided. A miniaturized thermometer is arranged inside the RF absorber is arranged close to irradiation area for measuring the temperature which is transmitted to the controller. Several needles/probes are implanted at the target location of patient's body.
