Abstract

The problem of detecting and identifying the heat transfer processes in living tissues using a noninvasive ultrasound technique is discussed. An optimal method, which is optimal in terms of maximum of likelihood, is proposed to detect the temperature variations within internal layers of the living tissue. The properties of signals returned from different tissues are examined. The ultrasound velocity for different temperatures and the salt composition of a specimen under study is estimated. Results of the algorithm simulation are given.
