Estimation of the temperature field in laser-induced hyperthermia experiments with a phantom.

CONCLUSIONS: This article demonstrated that the Particle Filter method can be used to accurately predict the temperatures in regions where measurements are not available. The present technique has potential applications in hyperthermia treatments as an observer for active control strategies, as well as to plan personalized heating protocols.
