Thermography
First Introduced at 1956 [1]
 Increased angiogenesis and metabolism
around tumors [2]
 Temperature rise at the skin surface
above the tumor.
 Detection by IR cameras.
 Computer aided
detection

Advantages: [2]
Radiation free
 Contact free
 Non Invasive
 Low Cost

Disadvantages
Low sensitivity for small & deep tumors [3]
 Not tumor specific
 Subjective

TBT vs. Thermography
The heat can be turned on and off –
good reference can be achieved
 The heat emanating from the tumor is
considerably larger.
 The heat source is tumor specific.
 Objective- no need for special skills.
 Treatment can be combined at the
same session.

Small tumor (<5mm) – point heat source.
The tissue was numerically modeled using COMSOL
according the Pennes bioheat equation [8]:
Thermal properties – conductivity , perfusion .
metabolism – are assumed.
