发明名称 INTERSTITIAL MICROWAVE ANTENNA WITH MINIATURIZED CHOKE FOR HYPERTHERMIA AND SURGERY
摘要 The present invention relates to minimally invasive surgery techniques. It provides a method for manufacturing an antenna for percutaneous acute hyperthermia microwave applications of the monopole or dipole co-axial type provided with trap, commonly called choke, for blocking the propagation of t he backwards reflecting wave towards the generator. The method of manufacturing the antenna provides a metal needle (1) for the introduction of the antenna (2, 3, 4) in the target tissue. On the external conductor (4) of the antenna (2) a metal collar (6) is connected in a predetermined position; a plastics sheath (5) is applied in order to cover the external conductor (2) in the portion between the feed (7) and the collar (6); the inner wall of the metal needle (1) wherein the antenna is inserted is then used for containing and guiding the collar (6) and the sheath (5); in particular, the collar (6) bei ng in electrical contact with the inner wall of the metal needle (1). An antenn a is thus obtained with choke of variable length and with miniaturized diamete r. A thermocouple (21) can be introduced through the choke that protrudes directly in the ''feed'' zone.
