Accurate temperature field estimation in hyperthermia therapy is challenging. Tikhonov regularization improves accuracy, with optimal parameters depending on blood perfusion and sampling periods, even with noisy data.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computational Physics
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Accurate temperature monitoring is crucial for effective hyperthermia therapy.
  • Inferring the complete temperature field from limited measurements is an ill-posed problem.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the feasibility of state and parameter estimation for reconstructing temperature fields in hyperthermia.
  • To improve the accuracy of temperature field estimation using Tikhonov regularization.

Main Methods:

  • Applied state and parameter estimation methods.
  • Utilized Tikhonov regularization of order zero to address ill-posedness.
  • Investigated the influence of regularization parameter, sampling period, measurement noise, and perfusion patterns.

Main Results:

  • Tikhonov regularization significantly improved temperature estimation accuracy.
  • Optimal regularization parameter and sampling period were identified, dependent on perfusion characteristics.
  • Estimation accuracy was affected by measurement noise and initial perfusion guesses, with random patterns and noisy data posing the greatest challenges.

Conclusions:

  • State and parameter estimation methods, enhanced by Tikhonov regularization, are feasible for reconstructing hyperthermia temperature fields.
  • Optimizing regularization parameters and sampling periods is key to accurate temperature estimation.
  • The method shows promise for improving hyperthermia treatment monitoring and efficacy.
