Abstract

An aspect of clinical hyperthermia which is still in the midst of its developmental stage is the determination of three-dimensional (3D) temperature distributions for treatment planning purposes (COMAC BME/ESHO 1990, 1992). As long as noninvasive 3D temperature measurement techniques cannot be applied routinely in clinics, we must rely for temperature information on thermal probes inserted in tumor mass and healthy tissues. However, these invasive techniques cannot provide sufficient spatial information on the actual 3D temperature field and therefore thermal models are the method of choice to bridge the gap (CLEGG et al. 1985; CLEGG and ROEMER 1989,1992; LIAUH et al. 1991; see also Chap. 20).
