This paper is devoted to the analytical solution of three-dimensional hyperbolic heat conduction equation in a finite solid medium with rectangular cross-section under time dependent and non-uniform internal heat source. The closed form solution of both Fourier and non-Fourier profiles are introduced with Eigen function expansion method. The solution is applied for simple simulation of absorption of a continues laser in biological tissue. The results show the depth of laser absorption in tissue and considerable difference between the Fourier and Non-Fourier temperature profiles. In addition the solution can be applied as a verification branch for other numerical solutions.
