| Sumario: | The aim of this study was to develop a transducer for non-invasive temperature measurement in deeper tissue layers during tissue cooling. Simulation of the temperature field distribution in human tissues and the transducer were done, and the influence of transducer structure and material properties were studied. Using simulation results, the experimental transducer was designed for temperature measurement in deeper tissue layers during cooling. The temperature measurements with the needle thermometer and the transducer were well correlated at both before tissue cooling r = 0.723 and after cooling r = 0.945, and the temperature difference was no more than ±0.2 °C. |
