## Executive GIST (TL;DR)
- Objective: adapt the clinically used **BSD-500** hyperthermia device for mice by designing and performing base validation of a small-animal microwave hyperthermia applicator. - Design and methods: an iteratively refined, 3D-printable applicator was developed. Validation used mouse cadavers and electromagnetic/thermal simulations in Sim4Life. An **agarose coupling phantom** was used to couple the microwave antenna to tissue; its dielectric and thermal properties were measured. - Temperature monitoring: electromagnetically stable 4-wire sensors from the clinical device were read out independently for cadaver experiments, achieving 3 Hz sampling and a sensor standard deviation versus the reference thermometer smaller than 0.01 (unit not reported). - Heating performance: visual positioning alone allowed the tumour-surrogate region to reach **therapeutic temperatures** (reported lower bound 40; upper bound not reported in the abstract) when using a single control sensor in the agarose gel in contact with the mouse body. - Predicted hotspot and therapeutic zone: the highest temperature is expected at the gel near the antenna tip, reaching approximately 43 (units presumed °C but not stated). The therapeutic heating zone depth was estimated between 9.3 mm and 17.6 mm (95% CI). - Simulation results: electromagnetic simulations predicted the heating-rate distribution well and were robust to changes in material properties and geometry. Perfusion-aware simulations using the **Pennes bioheat equation** estimated at most a 21% reduction in tumour heating under physiological perfusion, suggesting therapeutic temperatures remain achievable in vivo. - Significance: the work provides base validation and substantially reduces barriers toward an accessible, easy-to-use **small-animal hyperthermia applicator**, and supports progression to in vivo experiments. - Missing or unclear details from the source abstract: several numeric values and units in the abstract were not reported or were truncated (for example, exact dielectric match values at 915 MHz, some temperature ranges and the unit for sensor standard deviation).

The applicator uses an agarose phantom to couple the antenna to the tissue, and we determined the dielectric and thermal properties thereof. To monitor the temperatures in the cadavers during the experiments, electromagnetically stable 4-wire sensors from the clinical device were read out independently._Main Results._ The agarose coupling phantom was characterised dielectrically and thermally and closely approximated muscle tissue (,at 915 MHz) and. The independent sensor readout achieved 3 Hz data collection with a sensor standard deviation from the reference thermometer smaller than 0.01 . In each of the validation experiments visual positioning was by itself sufficient to ensure the tumour-surrogate reached therapeutic temperatures (40 -) using only a control sensor in the agarose gel in contact with the mouse body. Extrapolating from our data, the highest temperature should occur in the gel at the antenna tip, reaching approximately 43 . The therapeutic zone extends to a depth of 9.3 mm-17.6 mm (95% CI). The electromagnetic simulation predicted the heating-rate distribution well and was robust to changes in material properties and problem geometry. Perfusion-aware simulations based on the Pennes bioheat equation predicted at most an21% reduction in tumour heating under physiological conditions, indicating that therapeutic temperatures should remain achievable _in vivo_._Significance._ This work substantially narrows the gap towards an accessible, easy-to-use small-animal hyperthermia applicator and provides the base-validation needed before progressing to _in vivo_ experiments. **Keywords:** bowman-sensor; hyperthermia; phantom; simulation; small-animal experiments; thermometry.
