Abstract

We present an analytical solution for the electrical potential and field established by a six-needle array electroporation electrode, which is used in vivo for cancer treatment and DNA delivery. The analytical solution closely matches the numerical solution obtained with the finite element method: the mean error is less than 0.6%.
