Harrison, Patrick K., Scott, Iain R., Green, A. Chris and Tattersall, John E. H. (2008) Physiological effects of localised heating pulses in brain slices. 38th European Microwave Conference (EuMC), Amsterdam, The Netherlands. 27 - 31 Oct 2008.

Record type: Conference or Workshop Item (Paper)

Abstract

Rapid localised heating (<100ms) was achieved in rat hippocampal brain slices by millisecond exposures to radiofrequency (RF) fields, using a metal stimulating electrode to focus the energy into the tissue. This produced very high specific absorption rates (>5MW·kg-1) in the tissue near the tip of the electrode. Electrophysiological recordings of evoked responses were made to characterise the physiological effects of the heating pulses.
