Abstract :
In this paper, a new approach of analyzing and concluding the information of inner heat source in the human tissue is proposed. By using the infrared technology, the breast surface temperature distribution can be got. With the temperature distribution the inner heat source can be deduced. This information may help Doctors make the clinical diagnosis.
