Abstract EN
An attractive alternative treatment for malignant tumors that are refractive to conventional therapies, such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, is electrical-pulse-mediated drug delivery.
Electric field distribution of tissue/tumor is important for effective treatment of tissues.
This paper deals with the electric field distribution study of a tissue model using MAXWELL 3D Simulator.
Our results indicate that tumor tissue had lower electric field strength compared to normal cells, which makes them susceptible to electrical-pulse-mediated drug delivery.
This difference could be due to the altered properties of tumor cells compared to normal cells, and our results corroborate this.
