THERMAL MODEL OF A HUMAN BODY IN CASE OF ELECTROMAGNETIC HYPERTHERMIA

A model of the human body for calculating the thermal field of biological tissue in the case of electromagnetic hyperthermia of a part of the body is presented. To simulate the thermal field we use Fiala's passive model of thermoregulation, in which the body parts (limbs, torso, neck) are geometrically represented by multilayer cylinders, and the head – by a multilayered sphere. The developed model allows predicting the body's thermal response to external factors – volumetric heating of the body area by a flexible flat applicator of the electromagnetic field.
