Abstract

Background and Objectives: Thermal simulation of laser-tissue interactions is useful for determining optimal treatment parameters during the treatment process. Since LITCIT has been used as a useful tool in different studies for treatment planning of thermotherapy of liver tumors, we taught to its use as a treatment planning tool in laser hair removal. In this study we evaluated this software for thermal simulation software for laser hair removal systems.Material and methods: Two articles were used as our references. Complete information about tissue such as optical-thermal properties and geometrical modeling and also laser system such as wavelength, spot size, pulse duration and fluence was extracted form these texts. Then, these conditions about tissue and system were entered in LITCIT simulation software. After that, we run the program and saved the results. Finally, we compare our results with the results in references and evaluated the.Results: Output results of the LITCIT showed that they were consistent with the results of references that were calculated with different thermal modeling. No significant difference was seen between LITCIT results and other mathematical methods. Such a less average error shows the accuracy of the software for simulation and calculating the temperature.Conclusions: This simulating software has a high ability for using as a treatment planning software of laser-tissue interaction of laser hair removal process. Thus, it can be used for optimization of treatment parameters and protocols before setting up a real treatment on patients.
