From: Predicting effects of blood flow rate and size of vessels in a vasculature on hyperthermia treatments using computer simulation

Figure 5

(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) show with blood vessel structure present and temperature distributions at the x = 38 mm (4 mm away from the front boundary), x = 42 mm (the front boundary), x = 52 mm (middle of the treated region), x = 62 mm (the back boundary), and x = 66 mm (4 mm away from the back boundary) planes, respectively, with perfusion rate of 0.5 kg· m-3 s-1. The applied absorbed power distributions are the identical optimized power distributions shown in Figs. 4(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) for the case of PBHTE.
