Abstract

The thermographical detection of breast tumour is an inverse and bad-conditioned problem for thermal field. Solving this problem needs, mainly, to solve an enormous number of direct problems. This paper analyses Pennes equation to model the thermal distribution within a healthy or malignant breast and proposes an efficient procedure for solving this equation..
