Abstract

See full text

A system is provided for monitoring edema in tissue. Thermal energy is supplied to tissue at a site where tissue water content is to be monitored to produce in the selected tissue a thermal response as a function of an intrinsic thermal property of tissue that varies with water content. Tissue water content is determined from the thermal response, the energy supplied and the relationship between tissue water content and the thermal property.
