Abstract
In this paper the physics processes proceeded in the tissue under laser radiation action are described. From heat and mass transfer analysis the tissue destruction model is received as a many boundaries Stefan problem with sudden change of thermophysical parameters on phase boundaries. A numerical solution of the 1-D problem is presented for model testing. It permits us to define a size of carbon zone and a boundary movement velocity. The resulting analysis shows that the model satisfies the real process of the tissue destruction.
