A Method of Hurtless Determination Tissue Metabolic Rate at Steady Temperature Field

Abstract

This paper presents a method of hurtless determination of tissue metabolic rate at steady temperature field. On the assumption that the relationship T (x) between the temperature T of inner body at the different position and these positions x is a quadratic equation, getting surface temperature of human body by infrared thermography. We deduced the relationship between the apparent conductivity and different position according to classical bio-heat transfer function. And then calculated the tissue Metabolic rate at the corresponding position under the conduction of the temperature field of inner body is keeping stable, and verified this method by experiment and calculation at last.
