    Hyperthermia treatment is a kind of cancer thermal treatment based on that tumor are weak at a temperature of 42-43 degrees Celsius. A radio frequency (RF) interstitial hyperthermia treatment is operated with needle electrodes. In clinics, when a doctor performs surgery with this thermal treatment, it is needed to precisely recognize the needle insertion positon and angle inside the human body. Accordingly, medical doctors are operating with an X-ray CT. In this study, we developed a virtual insertion simulator with hand tracking sensors for planning and training effective heating before the operation. This virtual reality system measures the operator's hand position precisely, using two hand-tracking sensors arranged orthogonal to each other to cover blind spots. We experimented with ager phantom and compared the accuracy between one and two sensor systems. From the measurement results, it was found that when using two tracking sensors, the positioning accuracy improved in every direction. The differences between actual measurement data and that of the VR simulator were less than 2mm in every direction. By using the developed VR insertion simulator, medical doctors can plan and train more easily and precisely for effective RF interstitial hyperthermia surgery.

    This paper describes the new virtual reality (VR) simulator system for performing an effective radio frequency (RF) interstitial hyperthermia treatment using a needle type applicator. The RF interstitial hyperthermia treatment is an effective low-invasive cancer treatment. However, this treatment requires high technique from medical doctors to insert the needle applicator inside the tumor. Since the skull protects the human brain, including complicated nerves, blood vessels and important tissues, a VR support system for training and making an effective surgery plan is needed in clinics. In this paper, first, we constructed an anatomical 3-D model from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray computed tomography (CT) images by using 3-D computer aided design (CAD) software. Second, we demonstrated the VR system consisting of a hand-tracking sensor. Finally, we calculated temperature distributions using the 3-D FEM model with a needle applicator displayed in a developed VR system. Finally, for evaluating the developed VR system, we compared the estimated result to experimented result using agar phantom. From these results, it was found that the proposed VR system is effective for performing hyperthermia treatments.

    We proposed a method of heating deep tumors using a resonant cavity applicator as one method of hyperthermia treatment. The feature of this heating method is that it enables deep heating without contact between a human surface and the applicator [1]. We also proposed a method to measure temperature distributions inside the human body while heating tumors by applying image processing from two ultrasonic images before and after heating [2].

    We developed a resonant cavity applicator for noninvasive deep hyperthermia treatment of osteoarthritis. In previous studies, we confirmed its viability by heating agar phantoms and conducting computer simulations. To evaluate the heating performance of this system on human subjects, it is necessary to develop a new noninvasive temperature measurement system. In this study, we developed a new temperature measurement system utilizing ultrasound imaging techniques. After heating an agar phantom with our resonant cavity applicator, temperature measurements from both our custom-made noninvasive ultrasonic thermometer and an optical fiber thermometer were collected and compared. Both temperature distributions showed a reliable trend, with heat energy concentrated at the center of the agar phantom. Average error rates were less than 13% for temperatures. The results of this study describe the viability of the temperature measurement system and the resonant cavity applicator for clinical applications.

    This paper evaluates experiments on the knee using a new heating rehabilitation system. For effective thermal rehabilitation of osteoarthritis, it is necessary to heat the deep tissue inside the knee joint. Our new rehabilitation system is based on the re-entrant type resonant cavity applicator which was developed for deep hyperthermia treatment in our previous studies. Our experimental results using agar phantoms showed our heating system is able to heat the deep tissue inside the knee without physically contacting the surface skin. In this study, we developed a prototype applicator and experimented on a healthy human subject's knee under clinical conditions. To evaluate heating performance, we conducted heating experiments with our resonant cavity applicator and a conventional microwave diathermy system and compared the results. The experimental results of temperature increase distributions inside the human body were estimated by ultrasound imaging techniques. The estimated results from our knee experiments show that our heating system is able to heat knee tissue more deeply than microwave diathermy systems can and thus would be effective for deep thermal rehabilitation applications in clinics.

    This paper proposes simplified methods to evaluate fatigue damage in a component subjected to cyclic thermal loading, in order to visualize the distribution of usage factor using a graphical user interface (GUI) incorporated in a widely-used commercial CAE. The objective is to perform the evaluation and visualization using a standard desktop PC. In the previous paper, three simplified methods based on elastic finite-element analysis (FEA) were proposed in place of the method in the procedures employed in ASME Section III Subsection NH. In this paper, the methods have been improved for elastic-plastic FEA. A previously performed thermal fatigue test with a type 304 stainless steel cylinder was simulated. Heat transfer, elastic, and inelastic analyses were conducted. Simultaneously with the analyses performed, the equivalent total strain ranges and fatigue usage factor distributions were calculated using user subroutines developed in this study including three newly proposed simplified and ASME NH-based methods. These distributions can be visualized on a GUI incorporated in a commercial FEA code. The calculation results were consistent with the distribution of cracks observed. In addition, by using these, the analysts can visualize these distributions using their familiar CAE system.

    This paper describes an experimental validation of the enhanced reference stress method to calculate fatigue J-integral ranges, which are effective in predicting the fatigue crack propagation rate under low–cycle fatigue loadings. Although J-integral type fracture mechanics parameters can be calculated via elastic–plastic finite element analysis (FEA) of the crack geometry, performing such an analysis is costly and requires a high–end computer. A simplified method for estimating the elastic–plastic J-integral is therefore desired. Herein, several representative simplified methods for estimating the elastic–plastic J-integral were applied to crack propagation prediction and compared with each other. The experiments referred to was a previously performed cyclic bending tests using wide–plate specimens containing a semielliptical surface crack. Limit load correction factors to improve the accuracy of the reference stress method were estimated by performing an elastic–plastic FEA. The predicted crack propagation behaviors were compared against the test results.

    Thermotherapy is used to inhibit the progress of osteoarthritis (OA) and to ease pain and stiffness. Effective thermotherapy occurs when heat can deeply penetrate the joint tissue, such as the cartilage and the joint cavity. The microwave diathermy system does not contact the patient's skin; however, our previous findings show that its heat penetration depth is less than 20mm, which is not enough to heat the deep tissue for effective treatment of OA. In this study, we developed a method using ultrasound (US) imaging techniques to calculate temperature increase distributions inside the human body. With this method, we evaluated the heating performance of current microwave diathermy systems. Finally, we compared our experimental data with computer-simulated temperature increase distributions using the finite element method (FEM).

    This paper discusses a new method to control the heating area of a re-entrant resonant cavity applicator for brain tumor hyperthermia treatment non-invasively. We have already discussed about the effectiveness of a developed system with experiments of heating an agar phantom and computer simulations. Here, in order to heat a deep brain tumor, we propose the heating method of using several electromagnetic heating modes which are transverse magnetic (TM) modes. In this method, TM010-like and TM012-like modes obtained by selecting resonant frequencies can be used to heat the deep brain tumors. To control the heating area of the modes the agar phantom is used in the heating experiments by the developed system. From these results, we found that the heating area of the agar phantom by using TM012-like mode is about 50% of the heating area of TM010-like mode. It is found that the proposed heating system can be applicable to the hyperthermia treatment of brain tumors corresponding to the size and the position where it occurred. © 2007 IEEE.

    In this paper, we have proposed a new heating method in which high frequency electric fields in a re-entrant type resonant cavity are used for the heating of deeply seated tumors. In this method, a human head is placed between the gap of the inner re-entrant cylinders, and is heated with electromagnetic fields stimulated in the cavity without contact between the surface of the human head and the applicator. Here, we proposed a new method to control the heating area. In this method, the resonant frequency inside the cavity was changed, then we use the TM010-like mode and the TM012-like mode from various types of the resonant frequency. First, the computer simulation results of electric and magnetic field patterns are presented. Second, a comparison of the heating properties of TM010-like mode and TM012-like mode are discussed. The heating area of the center of agar phantom is more concentrated by using TM012-like mode than that of using TM 010-like mode. From these results, it is confirmed that the proposed method can be controlled to heat the various sizes of deep tumors. ©2007 IEEE.

    本研究では、ロコモティブシンドローム（運動器症候群）の予防や改善を目的とした、脚部の筋肉組織を深部まで加温可能な治療システムに関する研究を進めている。具体的には、下肢骨格筋を効果的に深部加温しロコモの予防を行うことができる革新的な加温システムの開発を目的としている。 2021年度は、新型アプリケータの試作および脚部形状の観点ファントムを用いた加温実験を計画しており、研究計画通り進めることができた。 2020年度に実施した解析結果をもとにアプリケータ形状および寸法を設計し、アルミニウム板を用いてアプリケータ製作を行った。試作した装置の加温特性を検討するため、まずは円筒型筋肉等価寒天ファントムを用いて加温実験を行い、二つの誘電体を同時に一つのアプリケータで深部集中加温できる可能性を実験的に確かめた。さらに誘電体形状による加温特性変化についても検討を行うため、人体脚部形状のファントムを二つ作成し、それらを用いた加温実験においても本加温システムの有用性を示すことができた。 当初予定よりも研究が順調に進んだので、超音波による温度計測システムを実装するためにファントム内部での音圧分布解析についても着手した。音圧分布解析のためのソフトウェアを新規で購入した。2022年度にそれらの解析結果を踏まえて、温度計測機能付きアプリケータを開発したいと考えている。 研究成果に関しては、国際会議ICEAAをはじめ国内の学会でも積極的に公表を行っている。 概ね当初予定通りに研究を進められている。次年度開始の実験研究についてもすでに着手している。

    In this research project, for the purpose of constructing an effective thermal treatment system, (1) development of a non-contact three-dimensional resonant cavity applicator, (2) a non-invasive temperature distribution measurement system using ultrasound images before and after heating, (3) Heating experiments of agar and simulated biological phantoms by the developed prototype systems, and (4) temperature simulations at the time of heating by the 3-D FEM were carried out. As a result, it was shown that deep heating and its heating position control are possible without contacting the heated body, and the possibility of non-invasively imaging and measuring the 3-D temperature distribution at that time was shown.

    We established a non-invasive method for measuring joint temperature using ultrasonic waves. With ultrasonic non-invasive temperature measurement, it was possible to estimate the two-dimensional temperature distribution within an error range of about 10%. This method revealed that it is difficult to heat the articular cartilage with the existing hyperthermia. Therefore, we have developed a resonant cavity system capable of deep heating. It is difficult to heat the articular cartilage in knee with the existing hyperthermia, but the newly developed deep heating system was able to heat the articular cartilage. A clinical study was performed on osteoarthritis of the knee using this device. The deep thermal system had a symptom-reducing effect on initial knee OA that was equal to or better than that of exercise therapy. The system reduced the clinical symptoms of knee osteoarthritis and could be effective for conservative therapy.

    To establish a more effective thermal therapy method for OA (Osteoarthritis), a smaller resonant cavity applicator with functions which are automatic impedance matching system and automatic frequency tuning system was developed. In this study, the calculated results of the human knee model by FEM (Finite Element Method) were discussed. After developed the prototype applicator, heating experiments using an agar phantom were performed. From these results, it was found that the newly developed resonant cavity applicator was able to effectively heat the deep tissue inside the knee joint.

    In this study, an ultrasound-guided non-invasive hyperthermia system using a resonant cavity was developed. Specifically, we developed a non-contact resonant cavity applicator using the ultrasound image device to find the position and size of the heated target. After achieving our original goal, we examined the possibility of measuring temperature distributions using ultrasound images. It was found that non-invasive 2-D temperature distributions were measured from the displacement of ultrasound images before and after heating.
