3D modeling of vector/edge finite element method for multi-ablation technique for large tumor-computational approach.

ABSTRACT: Microwave ablation (MWA) is a cancer thermal ablation treatment that uses electromagnetic waves to generate heat within the tissue. The goal of this treatment is to eliminate tumor cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed. During MWA, excess heat generation can kill healthy cells. Hence, mathematical models and numerical techniques are required to analyze the heat distribution in the tissue before the treatment. The aim of this research is to explain the implementation of the 3D vector finite element method in a wave propagation model that simulates the specific absorption rate in the liver. The 3D Nedelec elements from H(curl; Ω) space are used to discretize the wave propagation model, and this implementation is helpful in solving many real-world problems that involve electromagnetic pr
