A COAXIAL CABLE FOR A MICROWAVE ABLATION PROBE

A coaxial cable (102) for a microwave ablation probe (104) is disclosed. The alation probe (104) has an operating frequency at which microwave energy is delivered to target tissue. The coaxial cable (102) comprises: an inner conductor (202a); an outer conductor (202c); and a dielectric (202b) arrang...

Zusammenfassung:A coaxial cable (102) for a microwave ablation probe (104) is disclosed. The alation probe (104) has an operating frequency at which microwave energy is delivered to target tissue. The coaxial cable (102) comprises: an inner conductor (202a); an outer conductor (202c); and a dielectric (202b) arranged between the inner conductor and the outer conductor. The outer conductor (202c) comprises a plurality of cut-outs (106). The cut-outs (106) each have a length less than 10% of the wavelength in free-space at the operating frequency of the ablation probe (104). Also disclosed is a microwave ablation system (100) and method (1000) of making a coaxial cable.
