This paper presents problems related to thermal radiation of human bodies in microwave range in aspect of diagnosis of breast carcinoma. A mathematical model of thermal radiation transfer through tissues is introduced and methods of measurement of temperature, depth and size of a heat source, by means of multifrequency microwave thermography are described. Theoretical considerations are supplemented by presentation of experimental results.
