Diagram of geometries of parametric studies, showing the applicator in the center of a cylinder of tissue. Geometries for studies of blood vessel and duodenal heating include two concentric cylinders representing the inner and outer surfaces of a blood vessel (a) or duodenal wall (b). In 2D studies of the impacts of attenuation and perfusion, the temperature distributions in the axisymetric geometry was rotated about the central axis to represent a 3D cylinder (c)
