Abstract
A model for the calculation of heating of a blood vessel, which is modeled by an infinite circular cylinder and located in the hypodermic layer, under the action of laser radiation is proposed. Heating of such a vessel under the action of radiation with wavelengths most often used for laser therapy is calculated within the framework of the model proposed. The heating proce ss is compared with the case of skin heating by laser radiation in the mult ilayer model of the skin. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
