Recently, dosimetry of thermal influences on biological tissue has been attracting more and more interest among scientists. For temperatures exceeding 56Β°C, the irreversible tissue coagulation can be approximately described by the Arrhenius theory, which was established in chemical kinetics. Investi
## Abstract ## Background and Objective Laserβinduced thermotherapy (LITT) is a promising treatment for irresectable liver tumors. To predict the effects of laser applications and to optimize treatment planning in LITT, it is essential to gain knowledge about light distribution in tissue, tissue o
The combined experimental use of laser-induced autofluorescence of cellular metabolites and methodological fundamentals of systems biology will provide access to biological thermal stress analysis on a sub cellular level. A test setup incorporating a pulsed nitrogen laser was realized with which aut
