To contribute to this research, the purpose of this work was to modify MATLAB code to be capable of data acquisition for synchronous temperature measurements and ultrasonic imaging from 36°C to 70°C. In addition to modifying the code, the design of the experiment was also modified to more efficiently produce results.
