This is a review/modeling study of heating of tissue by microwave energy in the frequency range from 3 GHz through the millimeter frequency range (30-300 GHz). The literature was reviewed to identify studies that reported RF-induced increases in skin temperature. A simple thermal model, based on a simplified form of Pennes' bioheat equation (BHTE), was developed, using parameter values taken from the literature with no further adjustment.

We consider the thermal response of the body to radiofrequency (RF) energy, with emphasis on partial-body exposure, to assess potential thermal hazards. The thermal analysis is based on Pennes' bioheat equation. In this model, the thermal response is governed by two time constants.
