Write the general form of the Pennes bioheat equation for the treated tissue volume. In the equation, please include the external heating term due to microwave heating, the metabolic heat generation term, and the Pennes blood perfusion term. The local blood perfusion in the tissue volume is 5 ml/(100g tissue min) given in typical medical textbooks. (a) First convert the blood perfusion rate into a value with a unit of 1/s. The density and specific heat of blood are 1050 kg/m³ and 3800 J/kg°C, respectively. (b) The average tissue temperature is 45°C during the heating treatment. Calculate the value of the average volumetric heat generation rate represented by the blood perfusion term. What kind of roles does the blood play during hyperthermia treatment, i.e., carrying the heat away from the treatment site or adding energy to the treatment site?
