Systems for removing heat from a subject's subcutaneous lipid-rich regions, such as tissue, organs, cells, and so forth, are described herein. In various embodiments, the system includes a treatment device and a controller for controlling a treatment process. The controller is configured to detect and compensate for an interruption in the treatment process.
1. A method for treating a subcutaneous lipid-rich region of a subject having skin, comprising: heating or cooling the subcutaneous lipid-rich region of the subject according to a profile of a treatment process, the profile having a total duration;identifying an interruption in the treatment process
1. A method for treating a subcutaneous lipid-rich region of a subject having skin, comprising: heating or cooling the subcutaneous lipid-rich region of the subject according to a profile of a treatment process, the profile having a total duration;identifying an interruption in the treatment process after a first duration,determining a second duration of the identified interruption;determining a third duration equal to a difference between the total duration and the first duration;compensating for (1) rewarming of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region of the subject during the second duration when the subcutaneous lipid-rich region is cooled during the first duration and (2) a temperature decrease in the subcutaneous lipid-rich region when the subcutaneous lipid-rich region is heated during the first duration; andafter compensating for rewarming of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region or the temperature decrease in the subcutaneous lipid-rich region, continuing the treatment process according to the profile for the third duration. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining an interruption temperature (Tinterrupt) of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region after the first duration and a rewarming temperature (Trewarm) of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region after the second duration based on the first and second durations, respectively. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining an interruption temperature (Tinterrupt) of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region after the first duration and a rewarming temperature (Trewarm) of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region after the second duration based on the first and second durations, respectively, wherein the profile is a first profile, and wherein the method further includes determining a second profile having a cooling rate ({dot over (Q)}) calculated as follows: Q.=ρVCp(Trewarm-Tinterrupt)π where ρ is a density, V is a volume, and Cp is a specific heat capacity of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region; and π is a recovery duration. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining an interruption temperature (Tinterrupt) of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region after the first duration and a rewarming temperature (Trewarm) of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region after the second duration based on the first and second durations, respectively, wherein the profile is a first profile, and wherein the method further includes determining a second profile having an expected rate of change for a temperature at the skin of the subject as follows: ΔT=(Trewarm-Tinterrupt)π where π is a recovery duration. 5. The method of claim 4 wherein compensating for rewarming includes monitoring a rate of change for the temperature at the skin of the subject; andadjusting the second profile for the recovery process if the monitored rate of change deviates from the expected rate of change by a preselected amount. 6. The method of claim 4 wherein compensating for rewarming includes monitoring a rate of change for the temperature at the skin of the subject; andadjusting the second profile for the recovery process if the monitored rate of change deviates from the expected rate of change by a preselected percentage. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining a compensation cooling/heating rate based on the second duration; andcooling or heating the subcutaneous lipid-rich region based on the compensation cooling/heating rate to compensate for the rewarming or the temperature decrease of the subcutaneous lipid-rich cells. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining whether to resume the treatment process after the identified interruption based on the second duration and/or a number of interruption occurrences;if the determination is to resume the treatment process, the treatment process is continued according to the profile for the third duration; andif the determination is to not resume the treatment process, the treatment process according to the profile is stopped. 9. A computer-readable medium containing instructions for performing the method of claim 1. 10. A method for treating a subcutaneous lipid-rich region of a subject having skin, comprising: heating or cooling the subcutaneous lipid-rich region of the subject according to a profile of a treatment process, the profile having a total duration;identifying an interruption in the treatment process after a first duration,determining an interrupt duration of the interruption;determining a compensation treatment profile based on the interrupt duration, the compensation treatment profile being different from the profile of the treatment process;heating or cooling the subcutaneous lipid-rich region according to the compensation treatment profile to compensate for changes in temperature of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region associated with the identified interruption;determining a third duration based on the total duration and the first duration; andafter compensating for the identified interruption, continuing the treatment process according to the profile based on the third duration. 11. The method of claim 10, further comprising: determine whether to resume the treatment process based on the interrupt duration and/or a number of interruption occurrences;if the determination is to resume the treatment process, the treatment process is continued according to the profile for the third duration; andif the determination is to not resume the treatment process, the treatment process is terminated. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the third duration is equal to a difference between the total duration and the first duration. 13. The method of claim 10, further comprising: determining a recovery cooling/heating rate based on the interrupt duration; andcooling or heating the subcutaneous lipid-rich region based on the recovery cooling/heating rate to compensate for the temperature changes of the subcutaneous lipid-rich region associated with the identified interruption.
