A Green's function solution to the tissue bioheat equation including blood flow in cylindrical geometry is obtained. Numerical results for temperature variation in the bovine muscle are reported when the tissue is exposed to neodymium-yttrium-aluminum garnett (Nd:YAG) lasers with Gaussian profile and a comparison with recent measurements is made. A strong dependence of the tissue temperature on the beam radius and pulse time is found.
