    Background:

    • Accurate prediction of tissue temperature fields is crucial for effective hyperthermia treatments.
    • Estimating temperature distribution is challenging due to unknown and variable tissue blood perfusion.
    • Previous methods using steady-state temperatures and optimization have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a novel method for predicting complete tissue temperature fields during hyperthermia.
    • To compare the performance of a new transient temperature technique against a steady-state approach.
    • To assess the robustness of the transient technique in scenarios with limited temperature measurements and unknown perfusion.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a new technique analyzing transient temperature changes after a power decrease.

  • Application and comparison of the transient technique with a previously reported steady-state optimization method.
  • Evaluation using one-dimensional simulated hyperthermia treatment scenarios.

    • Main Results:

    • The transient temperature technique demonstrated superior accuracy and robustness in predicting complete temperature fields compared to the steady-state method.
    • The transient technique effectively predicted temperature fields even when the number of unknown blood perfusion parameters exceeded the number of temperature sensors.
    • Simulations showed significant improvements in predictive capability with the transient approach.

    Conclusions:

    • The transient temperature technique offers a more reliable method for predicting tissue temperature fields in hyperthermia.
    • This approach is particularly advantageous in complex scenarios with limited temperature data and high uncertainty in blood perfusion.
    • Further development and validation of this transient method could enhance the precision and efficacy of hyperthermia treatments.
