Abstract
Part I of this presentation discusses topics on RF/microwaves and optics in therapeutic medicine. The advances in the areas of RF/microwave cardiac ablation, RF/microwave treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), microwave balloon technology, RF in the treatment of sleep apnea, LED array for neonatal phototherapy and endoscopic light sources for photodynamic therapy (PDT) are specifically addressed. Part II presents various techniques available for breast cancer detection. Current limitations are discussed and future research trends are enumerated.
