A heat transfer model of skin tissue for the detection of lesions: sensitivity analysis.

TL;DR: This work validates the idea of examining the transient thermal response obtained using a thermal imaging system with the objective of lesion identification and conducts a detailed sensitivity analysis to interpret the changes in the surface temperature distribution as a function of variations in thermophysical properties, blood perfusion rate, metabolic heat generation and thicknesses of skin layers, using a multilayer computational model.
