基于射频电极群独立控制的适形消融系统设计

Design of a Conformal Ablation System Based on Independent Control of Radiofrequency Electrode Arrays

该研究旨在开发一种射频电极群独立控制系统,用于实现不规则组织的适形消融。与传统单一射频电压不同的是,该研究采用高频变压器隔离和射频负载匹配技术,将射频信号源分割为8组独立且具有相同相位和频率,但不同电压值的射频信号。实验结果表明,所设计的系统可分别独立输出多种组合射频信号。实际输出电压与理论计算电压的相对误差控制在6%以内,频率误差小于0.5%,且各组信号的相位相差小于1°。在仿生物组织加热实验中,控制电极群中各电极的电压,可实现不同形状的消融,且消融深度与施加的射频电压呈正相关。

This study aims to develop an independent control system for radiofrequency electrode arrays,intended for the conformal ablation of unwanted tissues.Unlike traditional single radiofrequency voltage applications,this study employs high-frequency transformer isolation and radiofrequency load matching technologies to divide the radiofrequency signal source into eight independent groups.Each group operates at the same phase and frequency but with different voltage values.Experimental results indicate that the designed system can independently output various combinations of radiofrequency signals.The actual output voltage has a relative error controlled within 6%,the frequency error is less than 0.5%,and the phase difference among the groups is less than 1°.In the biomimetic tissue heating experiments,it is found that by controlling the voltage of each electrode within the electrode array,ablation of different shapes can be achieved,and the ablation depth is positively correlated with the applied radiofrequency voltage.
