MEASURING MAGNETIC FIELD GENERATED BY A STENT HEAT DEVICE

István Erdélyi – László Farkas

   We developed a measuring method and system to analyze the magnetic field of an implantation (stent) heating device. The measuring system uses two measuring coils to measure and calculate the magnetic flux inside the device. A theoretical model was developed to show that some parts of the flesh surrounding the stent can be heated up to more than acceptable value. Based on the results an optimal heat coil arrangement is suggested to reduce the volume of flesh irritated by the magnetic flux.
