Thanks Amara. I am thinking of alternatives to microwave temperature control as a means of freezing a brain in a controlled non-destructive manner. A derivative of Keith’s idea is to remove tissue from the nasal cavity and start the freezing process from the top of the head. That way the brain tissue can expand downward into partially evacuated nasal cavity. I am actually leaning more toward that notion than microwave process control. It also obviates splitting the skull.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:#1F497D'>spike<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText> <span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
