Abstract
Calculations of transient tissue temperature distributions are enhanced by the use of an algorithm to simulate automatic temperature regulation by negative feedback. This feature is quite useful in treatment planning, enabling the physicist to predict the effects on the treatment of variations in temperature regulation system parameters, such as temperature sensor replacement and feedback loop gain.
