Thermal detection of a prevascular tumor embedded in breast tissue by Ephraim Agyingi, Tamas Wiandt, Sophia A. Maggelakis

“…The model uses the steady state temperature of the breast at the skin surface to determine whether there is an underlying tumor and if so, verifies whether the tumor is growing or dormant. The model is governed by the Pennes equations and we present numerical simulations for versions of the model in two and three dimensions.…”
