Abstract
The presented study considers the equation of hyperbolic conduction of heat with perfusion in order to identify such intensity of spatial heat source that will lead to hyperthermia of a cancerous tumor placed in healthy tissue. The tumor is assumed to be in the form of a sphere with a small radius. In order that the determined intensity of the heat source does not damage healthy tissue, different temperature distributions as a function of time are anticipated at the tumor's border. The mathematical tools used are based on the Trefftz method. The results are presented in the form of numbers and graphs illustrating the intensity of the identified heat source and matching the obtained temperature distributions in the tumor to the predicted ones.
