The bolus (silicon + deionized water) is used in order to achieve a good electromagnetic match between the biological tissue and the applicator surface and to locally modify the skin temperature, to regulate it based on the patient's sensitivity. Therefore, it is very important to know the electromagnetic power deposition and how the bolus can induce a variation in the thermal map, both superficially and deeply. The aim of this study is to evaluate the applicator characteristics in the same conditions as those indicated by the ESHO guidelines for clinical practice and to investigate the penetration depth in the absence and in the presence of a very effective circulating bolus. The first condition is used by the manufacturer to characterize MW applicator while the second condition is used by medical equipes delivering HT treatments.
